Intro
B G#m B (x3)
B G#m E G#m
[Verse]
B E G#m
We dressed up for your funeral in our nicest borrowed clothes.
E B
I put on dress shoes that I stole and ran out.
E G#m
And we made way for the roundabouts of a still suburban town
E G#m F# B
The snow was scattered on the ground and I thought
[Pre-chorus]
B G#m F# B
Before you left did you say all you wanted to?
B G#m F# B
Before you died did you do all you meant to do?
B G#m F# B
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you?
B
Tell me how it ends.
[Chorus]
E
Cause you lived like a tightrope walker
B G#m B
While I was on a phone call somewhere else
E
When you fell I couldn’t catch you
B G#m B
I was getting drunk all by myself
F# G#m E F# B E
And the hardest part was to show up here at all
[Verse]
B E G#m
As we listened to your eulogy from that priest you didn’t know
E B
I half wrote letters to your nonexistent ghost
E G#m
Hey Jazmine are you listening? I know I never return calls
E G#m F# B
But if you’re there at all just tell me
[Pre-chorus]
B G#m F# B
Before you left did you say all you wanted to?
B G#m F# B
Before you died did you do all you meant to do?
B G#m F# B
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you?
B
Tell me how it ends.
[Chorus]
E
Was it just the dope that failed you
B G#m B
Or did everyone just let you down?
E
Is there a way I could have saved you
B G#m B
If I was there would you still be around?
F# G#m E F# B5
The hardest things just can’t be known at all
[Interlude]
B5 B/A# B5 B/A#
[Outro]
E
I don’t know the whole truth
B
But I know a piece was buried with you
E
I don’t know the whole truth
B
But I know a piece was buried with you
