Intro: Dm F G (2x)
Verse: 1
Dm
You never know just what you've got
F G
Till it's slipping through your fingers
Dm
Never know just what you've got
F G
Till it's gone with the wind
Dm
And you never miss your shadow
Fm G
Till there's no one left beside you
Dm
You never miss your shadow
F
Till you're alone
G
Alone in the dark
Interlude
Dm F G
Verse: 2
Dm
You never know just what will break you
F G
Till you're picking up the pieces
Dm
Never know just what will break you
F G
Till your world, it falls apart
Dm
Never know how small your voice is
F G
Till you're screaming at the silence
Dm
Never know how small your voice is
F
Till you're arguing
G
Arguing with God

[Refrão]
Dm
But I saw Death's face today
F G
As he led my friend away
Dm
I saw Death's face today
F G
As he cast his shadow over me
Dm
I saw Death's face today
F G
As he led my friend away
Dm
So I'll ask who I gotta pay
F
To bring him back
G
Bring him back to me
Interlude
Dm F G
Outro
Dm
You never know the words you should've said
N.C.
Until they're all you're left with
N.C.
Until the dirt is falling and the guilt, it burns your bones
N.C.
And we ask the biggest question
N.C.
Why the fuck did this all happen?
N.C.
Who on Earth deserves this and what the hell do we do now?
N.C.
So we live like we have lost
N.C.
And we love like we are broken
N.C.
And as the colour leaves the sky, we're left in reverence of the frailty of it all
