Intro:  | G/ (320003@1) /  / | D/ (xx0232@1)C(9)/ (x3233x@1):||

VERSE 1:
G (320003@1)                        D (xx0232@1)            C(9)Never (x3233x@1)a day goes by when I can't see his face
G (320003@1)                                    D (xx0232@1)             C(9)And (x3233x@1)I can hear a thundering voice that no one will replace
G (320003@1)                                          D (xx0232@1)           C(9)But (x3233x@1)since he left you've been hiding out and I can't understand
G (320003@1)                                           D (xx0232@1)          C(9)It (x3233x@1)seems to me about that time you should be coming back again

PRE-CHORUS 1:
C(9) (x3233x@1)         G/B (143121@7)      Gm/Bb     AI (x02220@1)can feel the pain that won't go away
C(9) (x3233x@1)                 G/B (143121@7)             A (x02220@1)           DWe (xx0232@1)can't change that he left us but it's up to you to stay

CHORUS:
C(9) (x3233x@1)                      GAnd (320003@1)I will make sense of it all
C(9) (x3233x@1)                         GGonna (320003@1)try to make sense of it all
C(9) (x3233x@1)                                GYou (320003@1)ask me why, 'cause it's all I can do
           C(9) (x3233x@1)         A (x02220@1)        DI (xx0232@1)miss him every day but now I miss you

VERSE 2:
I know it hurts right now but you've got to keep moving on
And I know how good it can feel when you're safe and withdrawn
But he can live in a memory and you don't yet have that choice
'Cause you're still here and to speak to me you're gonna have to
     use your voice

PRE-CHORUS 2:
I ain't telling you what's right
And I ain't telling you what's wrong
But it's he who has died
And it's you who has gone

CHORUS

SOLO

VERSE 3:
G (320003@1)                                 D (xx0232@1)              *D
I know you're thinking now you must go through this alone
          Am (x02210@1)         DBut (xx0232@1)it's time to come home
