D5                                F5     A5
They found an empty bottle on her windowsill
    G5                      F5        A5
The day her mother lost her sleeping pills
        D5                      F5     A5     
She was sick and tired of being invisible
        G5                       F5     A5
Hard to see in color when you're miserable

A#5             G5
Veronika, Saint Veronika
          F5          A5       D5
You can't leave this world behind
A#5                    G5
So be strong enough to hold onto us
            F5          A5       D5
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

D5 A5 G5 E5 D5 A5

D5
And while the angels sleep
           A5
All of the devils are awake
           G5 
Waiting to steal your love
      F5                   E5 
Right outside of Heaven's gate
            D5
And all the sacred hearts
               A5
can't numb the feeling from the pain
               G5 
Cause when the drugs don't work
             F5              E5
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
