[Verse]
Bm                           A  D
Things were all good yesterday
                                 A  G
And then the devil took your memory
                          D      G
And if you fell to your death today,
                                    Bm
I hope that heaven is your resting place
Bm                                    A  D
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                                   A G
then that could've been the medicine
                                  A
And now you're lying in the bed again
A
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them

[Pre-Chorus]
G      D         Bm
And my father told me son
D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one
            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing

[Chorus]
Bm                      G
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
Em                   A
And we'll lie inside, a little while here, oh
Bm                     G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
Bm                       G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Em                   A
for they're designed to be together oh
Bm                      G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

[Verse]
Bm                           A  D
Things were all good yesterday
                                      A  G
And then the devil took your breath away
                           D G
And now we're left here in pain
                                       Bm
Black suit black tie standing in the rain
Bm                           A D
And now my family is one again
                                             A G
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
                                           A
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen
A
Six years old I remember when

[Pre-Chorus]
G      D         Bm
And my father told me son
D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one
            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing

[Chorus]
Bm                      G
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
Em                   A
And we'll lie inside, a little while here, oh
Bm                     G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
Bm                       G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Em                   A
for they're designed to be together oh
Bm                      G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

[Bridge]
Bm                        G
My father, and all of my family
                 Em                  A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
       Bm                     G
And my mother, and all of my family
                 Em                  A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
       Bm                     G
And my brother and all of my family
                Em                   A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
       Bm                     G
And my father, and all of my family
                Em                   A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
