VERSE:
         GI won't hold my tongue. 
                     CI'm not okay without you here. 
                GI guess what's done is done. 
                               CI just feel so exposed without you near.

BREAK:
Am                                C   And I won't say that I'm okay, 
Am   'Cause you taught me not to lie, 
                                   C   DSo know that I'll miss you everyday.


PRE-CHORUS:
            GYou always taught me to be good, 

And always do my best to be selfless 
       CBut I know that God is holding you 

And I am so damn jealous, 
         Am'Cause I miss your arms around me 

And the way you make me laugh. 
         DNow I'm stuck inside this prison that says 

You're never coming back. 


CHORUS:
         GSo I'm sitting in my room 

As I try to write this song. 
        CI'm so sorry that it's not good enough. 

It's just that everything seems wrong,
           AmAnd I keep bursting into tears 

Because the pain won't go away, 
             DBecause the father took my best friend 

And said she cannot come out to play
         G   C   G   CAnymore.


REFRAIN:
         GI won't hold my tongue. 
                     CI'm not okay without you here.
         GI won't hold my tongue. 
                     CI'm not okay without you here.
         GI won't hold my tongue. 
                     CI'm not okay without you here.


VERSE:
                GI guess what's done is done. 
                               CI just feel so exposed without you near.

So I can pay my way, 
           DStraight through the pearly gates 
          
Into your arms so we can play
      GOnce more.


SPOKEN OUTRO: (play Ab, Db over and over until end)
GGrandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart 
    CAnd uh, The only reason that isn't 
                                   GStated in my life is because of you

And I really don't understand it God

That you introduced me to 
                                
What would take you away so fast
    CWhen you were the only person

That ever understood a thing I ever said

And I really don't understand 
                              GHow to deal with this anymore
   
And, I'm just really not okay with this
   CAnd I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
                              GBut I don't want to be selfish 

I don't want you to be in heaven

I want you to be back down here

I don't want you to be there
                      CI want you to be here

What am I supposed to do now
                      G C G C  fade out...That's all I'm asking
