VERSE 1
F# D
So many obvious questions have gone unasked
F# D
how can you stand and where do you fall so fast
F#
you're taking a step, and you're taking a breath
D
and you never expect that the answer is death
F# D
because this truth is hardly true
CHORUS
F# E
nights that you felt her, and days spent without her
D D*
make everything feel like it's slipping away
F# E D D*
as you scream this world is far, this world is far from ours.
VERSE 2
Same chords of verse 1
after some time i imagine you sleep alright
until times that you hear her voice at night
you're telling yourself that's all in your head
she's out on the porch
and you're closer to dead
cause it's not what she deserves
CHORUS
the same
BRIDGE
F# E
the picture frame on the dark beige wall
D
holds a picture of someone you've held before
F# E D
and now she's nowhere to be seen
