[Verse 1]
C
There was a time
G Am
Feels like only yesterday
F G
We were young and high on love
C
Together for life for a week
G Am
Now we've been apart for a month
F Gdim7
And as it turns out
C
Life goes on without you here
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C
We said we'd wait
F G
A month, a year or eight
Am
However long it'll take
G Am
For you to be with me
C
And I knew I'd be home soon
G Am
And I knew the world wouldn't stop
F Gdim7
Just to let me be alone with you
C
But it's still so hard to see
Am G Gdim7 C
The world go on without you here
 
[Chorus]
F C
The sun still rises in the morning
G Am
And I know I will, too
Fm C G Am
The trees keep their green and the sky's still just as blue
Fm C
So I'll keep calm and carry on
G Am F C Gdim7
Even though the world will carry on without you here
 
[Verse 2]
C
We both wish we could be
G Am
Somewhere where it's you and me
F G
Somewhere we can be
C
Young and dumb and high on love
G Am
That place doesn't exist right now
F Gdim7
Not outside of our minds at least
G Am
Cause as it turns out
C
Life goes on without you here
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C
We said we'd wait
F G
A month, a year or eight
Am
However long it'll take
G Am
For you to be with me
C
And I knew I'd be home soon

And I knew the world wouldn't stop
F Gdim7
Just to let me be alone with you
C
But it's still so hard to see
Am G Gdim7 C
The world go on without you here

The sun still rises in the morning
G Am
And I know I will, too

The trees keep their green and the sky's still just as blue

So I'll keep calm and carry on
G Am F C Gdim7
Even though the world will carry on without you here
 
[Outro]
C Gdim7
And though we both wish it was different
Am G
There's just too much of a distance
G Am Fm C Gdim7
For the world to not go on without you here
Fm Am G
Oh I wish the world would stop going on
Gdim7 C
without you here
