C5             F5      G5 
It was only one hour ago 
F5                       G5 
It was all so different then 
C5                     F5           G5 
There?s nothing yet has really sunk in 
              F5      G5 
Looks like it always did 
     C5   F5   G5 
This flesh and bone 
              F5                       G5 
It's just the way that you would tied in 
            C5  F5   G5 
Now there's no...one home 


F5 C5        G5 
I grieve for you 
F5   C5   G5 
You leave me 
                     A5       G5 
It?s so hard to move on 
                    A5        G5 
Still loving what's gone 
                      A5      G5 
They say life carries on 
               A5             G5 
Carries on and on and on and on 


C5 - A5 - G5 

F5                   G5             C5   F5     G5 
The news that truly shocks is the empty empty page 
          F5            G5         C5   F5     G5 
While the final rattle rocks its empty empty cage 
F5                  G5 
And I can't handle this 
  

F5 C5        G5 
I grieve for you 
F5   C5   G5 
You leave me 
                    A5       G5 
Let it out and move on 
               A5       G5 
Missing what's gone 
                      A5      G5 
They say life carries on 
                      A5             G5 
They say life carries on and on and on 


A5 

A5 
Life carries on 
A5 
In the people I meet 
A5 
In everyone that's out on the street 
A5 
In all the dogs and cats 
A5 
In the flies and rats 
A5 
In the rot and the rust 
A5 
In the ashes and the dust 
A5                                G5 
Life carries on and on and on and on 
             A5            G5 
Life carries on and on and on 


                          A5 
It's just the car that we ride in  
  F5         C5  G5 
A home we reside in  
                 A5 
The face that we hide in  
    F5          C5  G5 
The way we are tied in  
                 A5                   G5 
And life carries on and on and on and on  
             A5            G5 
Life carries on and on and on  


G5 fade to C5 

C5              F5  G5 
Did I dream this belief? 
       F5              G5 
Or did I believe this dream? 
    C5        F5  G5 
Now I can find relief  
F5 A5 
I grieve
