Some chords were left out on purpose for simplicity' sake.


Dm                                F     A
They found an empty bottle on her windowsill
    Gm                      F        A
The day her mother lost her sleeping pills
        Dm                      F     A     
She was sick and tired of being invisible
        Gm                       F     A
Hard to see in color when you're miserable

Bbm             Gm
Veronika, Saint Veronika
          F          A       Dm
You can't leave this world behind
Bbm                    Gm
So be strong enough to hold onto us
            F          A       Dm
We're still right here by your side

No one ever thought that she was capable
And the damage done is irreversible
Now she clings to life inside a hospital
Like she's trapped inside a frozen waterfall

Always said her life was never meant to be
Stuck here living someone else's dream
Well beyond your window there is so much more
Even every prison has a open door

Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world behind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
it's just not your time to die

Dm A G E D A

Dm
And while the angels sleep
           A
All of the devils are awake
           Gm 
Waiting to steal your love
      F                   E 
Right outside of Heaven's gate
            Dm
And all the sacred hearts
               A
can't numb the feeling from the pain
               Gm 
Cause when the drugs don't work
             F              E
you're gonna curse His holy name

Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
We're still right here by your side
So be strong enough to hold onto us
You can't leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
it's just not your time to die
