Capo 1 (again works for most emery songs)

Cadd9 Am Cadd9
Time is running out as you die, die, die in this bed not making a sound.
Am Em G Dm Em G
It has all come crashing down to be here, and watch you breathe your last.
Dm Cadd9 Em
So helpless to stop you from slipping away so fast.
Cadd9
Oh, God, are you listening now?
Am Cadd9
As this cancer dances through her, and then takes a bow.
Am Em G
It won't disappoint the crowd,
Dm Em
whose words are a curse,
G Dm
as I hear them one-by-one.
Cadd9 Em
Please pull the string, and I come undone.
Am Dm Cadd9 Em Am
I know this. I failed to say. I'm sinking by your side.
Dm Cadd9 Em Am
You're worth this. I wouldn't trade a day to not have gone through this
Dm Cadd9
So many days I've been blind.
Em Am
I want to stop and rewind.
Dm G Cadd9
Kick off our shoes and dance with the ghost of you.
Am Cadd9
Who could tease me and leave me begging for the abuse?
Am Em G Dm Em G
You're the only one I knew that could tame me, and make me who I am.
Dm Cadd9 Em
But now, there's self-blaming and there's nothing left of all my plans.
Am Dm Cadd9 Em Am
I know this. I failed to say. I'm sinking by your side.
Dm Cadd9 Em Am
You're worth this. I wouldn't trade a day to not have gone through this
Dm Cadd9
So many days I've been blind.
Em Am
I want to stop and rewind.
Dm G
Kick off our shoes and dance...
G
Let's dance again.
G
We'll turn up our sleeves.
Cadd9 Am
I know just where to begin.
G Cadd9
Dance, let's dance again.
Dm Em G Am Dm Em G Am
We could find ourselves before this happens...
Am Cadd9
These words of mine are trite and so cliche.
Am Cadd9
Still we find a place in everything.
Am Cadd9 Em G
It's just to break the silence that has been crushing me.
Am Cadd9
Half of me is dead, already gone.
Am Cadd9
Half is screaming everyone is wrong.
Am Cadd9 Em Cadd9
Finally asking now, will you just hear me out?
Dm Am
This was all my fault.
Cadd9 Dm G Em
You brought me death, and it's everything I wanted.
Am Dm G
It's the wrong side of fear that kept me out.
