Intro: (Bass Riff - 2x)

Verse: (Bass Riff - 4x)

Did I hurt you? 
Did I ever make you bleed inside? 
Did I kill you? 
I didn't mean to make you hide yourself, 

( Bm Riff 1 - 6x)  

Find you in you, beautiful. 
Do not grow the seeds of pain in you, 
Goodbye!

Let them cry for you. 
                     A
You just dry your eyes,

Verse: (Bass Riff - 4x) 

I have been there, 
I used to believe there was no light. 
But I found out, 
Oh, life is far too short to fight. 

( Bm Riff 2 - 6x)

Loose yourself, let go of your pain, 
Taste the air you breathe and kiss the sky. 
Goodbye!
