Verse 1:
F#m
I try to sleep, but my eyes are open
A
I can't think cause my heart is broken
D
And there's a bottle right next to me
E
I'll down a few drinks just to take the pain away
F#m
I wanna say all the things I need to say
A
I won't lie, I'll just tell them honestly
D
If God can take a friend away from me
E
Then I can say all I want and he won't do anything

Pre-chorus 1:
F#m                      A
My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak 
            D          E
I can't say nothing at all

F#m             D
Sleep well, my friend
              A                           E
There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go
F#m          D
Sleep well, goodnight
                      A
You're something to remember
  E
I wish that you were here by my side

Interlude:
F#m

Verse 2:
F#m                  
I spend hours tryna make it through the day
A
I don't know if I'll ever be the same

D
It's hard enough when you're all alone
E
In the city that you love, now Atlanta's just a burial ground

Pre-chorus 2:
F#m                          A
My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak 
            D        E
I can't say nothing, nothing at all
F#m                             A                           D
It's hard to think when losing someone only make you wanna scream
                    E
And now that you're gone

  E
I wish that you were here by my side

Bridge:
A                               D                     
All the stained pieces, I can't believe this
  F#m                            E
A mother shouldn't witness her son die at twenty-four
(Please don't know this is for the hopeless,
It's ripping me apart and I can't take it anymore)
F#m             D                         A
I will hold my tongue for the rest of my life
  E
I can't keep this up anymore

Chorus 3:
F#m             D
Sleep well, my friend
              A                           E     -slide to- F 
There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go
F#m          D
Sleep well, goodnight
                      A
You're something to remember
  E                             F#m
I wish that you were here by my side

By my side
      A
By my side
      E
By my side

I wish that you were here by my side
