C#m7 Aadd9 Bsus4
[Verse]
C#m7 Aadd9
I remember when you asked me,
Bsus4
“What do you do when it doesn’t get better,
C#m7
And you can’t decide whether
Aadd9 Bsus4
To hold on tight or to let this go
C#m7
How do I let this go?”
Aadd9 Bsus4
It was the first time I felt true cold
C#m7
A stone monument with heavy words
Aadd9 Bsus4
I felt the weight of every one I heard
[Chorus]
C#m7 Aadd9 E
I hope you know that you can call
C#m7
I’m here to talk things over
Aadd9 E
We can stay up till the morning
C#m7
Or at least till we’re both sober
Aadd9 E
The sorrow that you carry soon will end
C#m7
You’re nearly past it
Aadd9 Am E
I’ve been there before as well, I won’t take for granted
[Verse]
C#m7 Aadd9 Bsus4 C#m7 Aadd9 Bsus
It’s hard to accept and move on, search for better things, to rectify what was and what still remains
C#m7 Aadd9 Bsus4
I hope in that moment of desperation
C#m7 Aadd9 Bsus4
You found reconciliation
[Chorus]
C#m7 Aadd9 E
I just wish you would have called
C#m7
We could have talked this over
Aadd9 E
Waited till the morning
C#m7
Or at least till we were sober
Aadd9 E
The burden that you carried didn’t die
C#m7
You only passed it
Aadd9 Am E
The weight pulled me to my knees when I saw your casket

[Outro]
