C
I held your ancient hand
Em
I flashed a toothy grin
C
And I’ve never cried
Em
Like I saw you cry
C
When you told me
Em
That you knew you’d die
C
If you went outside
Em C
And it was colder than sixty five.
Em C
And I’m just happy I can fill your life
Em
Fill this cluttered house
C Em
With laughter again.
C
It’s been a long long time
Em
Since your daughter died
C
And I’m sorry
Em
I dreamed of suicide
C Em
It wasn’t right.
C
I know it makes you sad
Em
To think you may never see
Summer again
C
And I would like to say
Em
There is a better place
C
After this life.
Em C Em
Well I’m sorry, we only get one try.
