Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
Just before the lights went out
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
we sat up and talked about
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
all the things that we would be
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
I just wanted him to be with me

[Riff]

[Verse]
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
but he had a mind of his own
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
and he did not mind being alone
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
left me there in my little world
Dsus D    Dsus  D     A    G
left me there like a little girl

[Chorus]
A   D     Em   G
he said, don't get hung up;
A   D      Em   G
hang ups will get you down?
A   D     Em   G
he said, don't look back;
A   D      Em   G
look up and then look around:

[Verse]
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
around that time I was feeling high
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
like I never had to try
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
to kick myself up out of bed
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
kick these worries out of my head

[Chorus]
A   D     Em   G
he said it's better this way;
A   D      Em   G
one day you'll understand?
A   D     Em   G
he said, I'm leaving today?
A   D      Em   G
and he let go of my hand

[Bridge]
Am       Em
I know that I'll never see him again
Am       Em
not the way the same way I saw him then
Am       Em
I know that when I get back on my feet
Am       Em
I will walk away from misery

[Riff]

[Verse]
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
what do you say when it's all been said
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
how do you feel when it's all been felt
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
where do you go when it's all gone
Dsus  D    Dsus  D     A    G
and you don't care enough to carry on

[Chorus]
A   D      Em   G
I say close your eyes,
A   D      Em   G
look down deep inside
A   D      Em   G
someone is there for you,
A   D      Em   G
someone who cares for you

[Outro]
Am       Em
I know it's easier to say than do
Am       Em
easier to look away than see it through
Am       Em
I know it's easier to think than feel
Am       Em
easier to make it up than make it real
Am       Em
it's hard to love, it's hard not to love

Am       Em
(to end)
