Intro
A F#m A (x3)
A F#m D F#m
[Verse]
A D F#m
We dressed up for your funeral in our nicest borrowed clothes.
D A
I put on dress shoes that I stole and ran out.
D F#m
And we made way for the roundabouts of a still suburban town
D F#m E A
The snow was scattered on the ground and I thought
[Pre-chorus]
A F#m E A
Before you left did you say all you wanted to?
A F#m E A
Before you died did you do all you meant to do?
A F#m E A
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you?
A
Tell me how it ends.
[Chorus]
D
Cause you lived like a tightrope walker
A F#m A
While I was on a phone call somewhere else
D
When you fell I couldn’t catch you
A F#m A
I was getting drunk all by myself
E F#m D E A D
And the hardest part was to show up here at all
[Verse]
A D F#m
As we listened to your eulogy from that priest you didn’t know
D A
I half wrote letters to your nonexistent ghost
D F#m
Hey Jazmine are you listening? I know I never return calls
D F#m E A
But if you’re there at all just tell me
[Pre-chorus]
A F#m E A
Before you left did you say all you wanted to?
A F#m E A
Before you died did you do all you meant to do?
A F#m E A
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you?
A
Tell me how it ends.
[Chorus]
D
Was it just the dope that failed you
A F#m A
Or did everyone just let you down?
D
Is there a way I could have saved you
A F#m A
If I was there would you still be around?
E F#m D E A5
The hardest things just can’t be known at all
[Interlude]
A5 A/Ab A5 A/Ab
[Outro]
D
I don’t know the whole truth
A
But I know a piece was buried with you
D
I don’t know the whole truth
A
But I know a piece was buried with you
