[Verse 1]
G/B Am C G/D C/E
A white wooden cross by the side of the road
G/B Am C G/D Am
One someone lost that I did not know
G/B Em
What would I do?
G A7
What would I do?
G/B Am C G D
If a white wooden cross meant that I'd lost you
[Verse 2]
G/B Am C G/D C/E
I asked myself, "How would I let go?"
G/B Am C G/D Am
And a thought appeared like a morning dew
G/B Em
And my blood ran cold
G A7
My blood ran cold
G/B Am C G
As these sad ideas passed through
[Chorus]
Bm
Tell me no lies
Am
Tell me no lies
Bm
Is it stranger to live?
Cmaj7 C6 D
Is it stranger to die?
[Instrumental]
| G/B | Am C | G | C/E |
| G/B | Am C | G/D | Am |
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Em
What would I do?
G A7
What would I do?
G/B Am C G
If a white, wooden cross meant that I'd lost you
[Chorus]
Bm
Tell me no lies
Am
Tell me no lies
Bm
Is it stranger to live?
Cmaj7 C6 D
Is it stranger to be alive?
[Verse 3]
G/B Am C G/D C/E
For all the people that I am not
G/B Am C G/D Am
And all their prayers and all their thoughts
G/B Em
There's so much more out there
G A7
Than here where I stand
G/B Am C
I blow my horn for the whole band
[Outro]
