G   D   Em

[Verse 1]

G              D
I stare at the TV
      Em
And I can't believe my eyes
        G
There's no place to run
    D
And no place to go
        Em               C
There's no place left to hide
G               D
I can see their faces
Em               C
I can feel their pain
A5             Em           C
Our lives will never be the same

[Chorus 1]

   G          D
So forgive me if I laugh
     Em               C
It's just to hide the tears
G           D
Sometimes I wonder if
     Em               C
I've wasted all those years
A5          C
For all the things I felt
    G         C
But forgot to say
G               Em               C
      Would you give me one more day

D  G  C

[Verse 2]

G              D
I sit here and wonder
    Em
Now what if that were me
       G
If I'd lost my life
     D
Left behind my wife
        Em                   C
And the child that I'd never see
G               D
If I could look down on her
    Em          C
How would she explain
A5              Em         C
     That daddy had to go away

[Chorus 2]

   G               D
So forgive me if I smile
     Em              C
It's just to hide my fears
G        D
And in a time of dying
    Em              C
Our life becomes so clear
A5                C
They say the good Lord works
        G          C
In such mysterious ways
G                   Em                F
     I just hope he gives me one more day

[Bridge]

F        C                    G
One more day to look into her eyes   yeah-yeah
F        C             G
One more moment to say goodbye, goodbye
F        Em                G
One more night to feel her touch
A5            C                    D    D4  D
Just one more chance so that I can tell her
           C
How much I miss her
    G
And tell her I love her

[Verse 3]

G                   D
Someone to love and someone to hold me
Em                 C
Before I fall from grace
G                   D
Someone to need me, someone to believe me
Em               C
Before I lose my faith
A5          C
For all the things I meant
    Em        C
But forgot to say
G               Em               C
     I hope you give me one more day

[Chorus 3]

   G          Em
So forgive me if I laugh
     A5               C
It's just to hide the tears
G           Em
Sometimes I wonder if
     A5               C
I've wasted all those years
G           Em
For all the things I felt
    A5        C   A5  Em
But forgot to say
