(INTRO)


E
 I think about you all the time,
                            G#m
pray to God that you’ll be fine,
                     A 
you’re better than this


(INTERLUDE)


E    G#m    A


(VERSE)


    E
Dillusioned with ambition from a cloud of your prescriptions,
       G#m                                   A
your brain it makes the distance while your feet just stand in place,
    E 
so basically the faith in me that somehow still transcends,
      G#m                     A
into you and only through my hope that you can change,
            E
I pray to whoever listens, that lonely chair that you sit in,
 G#m                                      A
hits you like a ton of bricks, and I can finally stop 


(PRE-CHORUS)

               B          C#m  A
being worried sick of it all

B    C#m    A

And did you know that


(CHORUS)


E                           B
 I think about you all the time,
                            G#m
pray to God that you’ll be fine,
                     A 
you’re better than this
                     E
you're better than this

G#m    A

(VERSE)


E
 You stay secluded in your shadow’s silhouette,
         G#m                           A
it’s a shade that you made, through years of your regrets,
E
 always these questions that ring inside my head,
                   G#m                                    A
“what’s the last promise that you’ve made, and the last promise that you’ve kept?”


(PRE-CHORUS)


    B            C#m
I reminisce on how as kids 
       A
we’d sit and talk for days,
     B              C#m
we told each other we’d be brothers,
     A
and everything would be okay


(CHORUS)


E                           B
 I think about you all the time,
                            G#m
pray to God that you’ll be fine,
                     A 
you’re better than this
            E      B
At least I hope so
            G#m    A
At least I hope so


(BREAK)


E    A    E    A

    E
If only you could see,
      A
the man behind those bones,
       E
then maybe you would speak
         A
to the kids you left alone


(BUILD-UP)


    B              C#m
If only you could see,
      A
the man behind those bones,
       B               C#m
then maybe you would speak
         A
to the kids you left alone
B          C#m                        
 I think about you 
         A
all the time,
B         C#m                            
 pray to God that 
           A
you’ll be fine


(CHORUS)

pray to God that you’ll be fine,
                     A 
you’re better than this
            E      B
At least I hope so
            G#m    A
At least I hope so

E    G#m    A
