Intro:  G - C  C     - Em   Am  C  Em  - C 
  
G                  C 
 She came home, just won the game  
C                           Em 
 Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream  
Am                      C         
 All she wanted was to make you proud,  
Em             C- Cmaj7  C- Cmaj7 
 You weren't there  
  
  
G                   C 
 He had his birthday few days ago  
C                           Em 
 He got some presents, a big party too  
Am                   C                   
 And there were congratulation calls  
Em                                       D 
 As the years before, not ever one from you  
  
  
               C                  Am 
You weren't there, distant, far away  
                      Em                         D 
It's like this every day, they see you in their heads  
                  Am 
Wonder if you'll come  
                      C                         Em 
Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again  
  
  
G                      C 
 She cut herself on a piece of paper  
C                       Em 
 It didn't hurt, but she saw the blood  
Am                       C                  Em    C Cmaj7 
 She could need that embrace, you weren't there  
  
G                C 
 Did he have to cry louder,  
C                    Em 
 Would that make you hear him  
Am                        C              Em        D 
 You see, his heart was broken, for the first ti___ime  
  
  
              C                   Am 
 You weren't there, distant, far away  
                       Em                         D 
 It's like this every day, they see you in their heads  
                   Am 
 Wonder if you'll come  
                       C                         Em 
 Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again  
         D                C                     
 Cannot turn back time, a wish yet to come true  
          Am               D       C 
 They're making up these stories about you  
               C                   Am 
 You weren't there, distant, far away  
                       Em                         D 
 It's like this every day, they see you in their heads 
                   Am  
 Wonder if you'll come 
                       C                         Em  D  C... fade 
 Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again
