VERSE 1
G      C        Em
   You took the best of me (best of me)
G           C     Em
   And I'll never know
G      C             Em
   I'm left with the rest of me (rest of me)
G      C         Em
   & I can't let go


PD-C HORUS
    C                                 D
I'm waiting for a train that's not coming
            C                 D
It's like a waterfall in my head


CHORUS
                     C
Oh won't you tell me why
                       Em
I keep waiting up at night,
                  G
Leaving on the lights
                         D
Like you never said goodbye
                  C
I hear you at the door,
                   Em
Footsteps on the floor,
                         G
But you're not here no more
                 D
What hurts the most
                         C                 Em
Is sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
                      G                  D
Sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)


VERSE 2
G           C        Em
    I still feel you holding me (holding me)
G           C        Em
    All the world is gone
G           C        Em
    I still hear you calling me (calling me)
G         C       Em
    But I don't belong


PD-C HORUS
           C                          D
How do you take the knife from your heart
           C                      D
When every beat still hurts the same


CHORUS
                     C
Oh won't you tell me why
                       Em
I keep waiting up at night,
                 G
Leaving on the lights
                         D
Like you never said goodbye
                  C
I hear you at the door,
                   Em
Footsteps on the floor,
                         G
But you're not here no more
                 D
What hurts the most
                         C                 Em
Is sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
                      G                  D
Sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)


VERSE 3
                   C
When we had a baby girl I was scared to death
                     Em
And the doctor said "Doll, you ready to push?"
                   G
Drove home like we stole the sun.
                       D
Those kind of memories don't fade, don't run,
                  C
They stuck to the back of my mind,
                          G
I hear you blowing in the trees at night,
                      D
I'm still sleeping on my own side.
                            C
Yeah, they said you'd never be prepared for the worst ones,
              Em
you took your bow, they dropped the curtains,
             G
there's no encore, just me on the floor,

Waiting here for more.


CHORUS
                     C
Oh won't you tell me why
                       Em
I keep waiting up at night,
                 G
Leaving on the lights
                         D
Like you never said goodbye?
                  C
I hear you at the door,
                   Em
Footsteps on the floor,
                         G
But you're not here no more
                 D
What hurts the most
                         C                 Em
Is sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
                      G                  D
Sleeping with your ghost (ohh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
