[Intro]

E C#m E (x3)

E C#m A C#m

[Verse]

E                        A             C#m      
We dressed up for your funeral in our nicest borrowed clothes. 
          A                                     E
I put on dress shoes that I stole and ran out. 
                         A               C#m
And we made way for the roundabouts of a still suburban town 
              A                                    C#m B E
The snow was scattered on the ground and I thought 

[Pre-chorus]

E                                              C#m B E
Before you left did you say all you wanted to? 
E                                              C#m B E
Before you died did you do all you meant to do? 
E                                                   C#m B E
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you? 
E
Tell me how it ends. 

[Chorus]

       A
Cause you lived like a tightrope walker 
                                       E   C#m  E
While I was on a phone call somewhere else 
A
When you fell I couldn’t catch you 
                              E   C#m  E
I was getting drunk all by myself 
         B      C#m           A      B       E    A
And the hardest part was to show up here at all 

[Verse]

E                      A                C#m
As we listened to your eulogy from that priest you didn’t know 
              A                           E
I half wrote letters to your nonexistent ghost 
                      A                   C#m
Hey Jazmine are you listening? I know I never return calls 
     A                                 C#m B E
But if you’re there at all just tell me 

[Pre-chorus]

E                                              C#m B E
Before you left did you say all you wanted to? 
E                                              C#m B E
Before you died did you do all you meant to do? 
E                                                   C#m B E
Could you look it in the eyes when it came for you? 
E
Tell me how it ends. 

[Chorus]

A
Was it just the dope that failed you 
                              E    C#m E  
Or did everyone just let you down? 
     A
Is there a way I could have saved you 
                                     E    C#m E
If I was there would you still be around? 
     B       C#m         A        B        E5
The hardest things just can’t be known at all 

[Interlude]

E5 E/Eb E5 E/Eb

[Outro]

A
I don’t know the whole truth 
                                       E
But I know a piece was buried with you
A
I don’t know the whole truth 
                                       E
But I know a piece was buried with you
