VERSE:

         D
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     G
I'm not okay without you here. 
                D
I guess what's done is done. 
                               G
I just feel so exposed without you near.

BREAK:

Em                                G
   And I won't say that I'm okay, 
Em
   'Cause you taught me not to lie, 
                                   G   A
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


PRE-CHORUS:

            D
You always taught me to be good, 

And always do my best to be selfless 
       G
But I know that God is holding you 

And I am so damn jealous, 
         Em
'Cause I miss your arms around me 

And the way you make me laugh. 
         A
Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says 

You're never coming back. 


CHORUS:

         D
So I'm sitting in my room 

As I try to write this song. 
        G
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough. 

It's just that everything seems wrong,
           Em
And I keep bursting into tears 

Because the pain won't go away, 
             A
Because the father took my best friend 

And said she cannot come out to play
          D   G   D   G (Intro)
Anymore.


REFRAIN:

         D
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     G
I'm not okay without you here.
         D
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     G
I'm not okay without you here.
         D
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     G
I'm not okay without you here.
                D
I guess what's done is done. 
                               G
I just feel so exposed without you near.


BREAK:

Em                                G
   And I won't say that I'm okay, 
Em
   'Cause you taught me not to lie, 
                                    G   A
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


PRE-CHORUS:

            D
You always taught me to be good, 

And always do my best to be selfless 
       G
But I know that God is holding you 

And I am so damn jealous, 
         Em
'Cause I miss your arms around me 

And the way you make me laugh. 
             A
And now I'm stuck inside this prison that says 

You're never coming back. 


CHORUS:

             D
And now I'm sitting in my room 

As I try to write this song. 
        G
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough. 

It's just that everything seems wrong,
           Em
But I will try my best to be good

So I can pay my way, 
           A
Straight through the pearly gates 
          
Into your arms so we can play
      D
Once more.


SPOKEN OUTRO: 

(play "Intro" until the end)

D
Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart 
    G
And uh, The only reason that isn't 
                                   D
Stated in my life is because of you

And I really don't understand the God

That you introduced me to 
                                
Would take you away so fast
    D
When you were the only person

That ever understood a thing I ever said

And I really don't know 
                              D
How to deal with this anymore
   
And, I'm just really not okay with this
   G
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
                              D
But I don't want to be selfish 

I don't want you to be in heaven

I want you to be back down here

I don't want you to be there
                      G
I want you to be here

What am I supposed to do now
                         
That's all I'm asking
