C5                   G5            F5      
sixteen months just wasn't long enough 
               G5
to change your mind
C5                G5             F5      G5
but I'm sure you knew that all along
C5              G5  
I was much too young
             F5         G5 
and you were much too far away to think
     C5              G5                 F5   G5   
that I might think about you when you're gone

C5            A5       C5              A5  
what did you wear how steep was your climb
C5            A5           D5              F5 
what did you have in your pockets at the time
    C5           A5       C5            A5 
how long did it take how much did you care
     C5           A5              D5                F5 
what side of the street did they find you waiting there

C5                     G5           F5       G5  
sixteen months leaves little to remember even though
           C5              G5                 F5  G5
I have the photographs to prove that you were there
C5              G5               F5                 G5
now and then I think about the way you might have been
          C5                 G5             F5   G5
but other times I'm just so angry I don't care

C5            A5      C5           A5 
what did you say and who did you tell
C5                 A5
what could I have done
                D5                  F5 
that might have saved you from yourself
C5          A5       C5                      A5     C5  
how did it feel and what went through your mind
              A5              D5                 F5   
what did they do with all the things you left behind
