I Never Got To See The West Coast

[Primeira Parte]

A2       E          B
So is it courage or strength
        F#m                   A2
And is that what I'm waiting for?
A2       E          B
If I could just kill myself
          F#m              A2
Would it also kill the remorse?
A2         E        B
I wanted so badly to catch a break
         F#m           A2
But I'm only breaking down
A2                 E
I'm still here and standing
            B
But if it's up to me
    F#m                 A2 E            B
I don't think I'll be...       hanging around

[Refrão]

      E
The drink slips down my throat
         Abm
And the burn cures nice and slow
         F#m                                 B
All the worst parts I wouldn't want you to see
                       E
The only parts left of me

Now, here I am
        C#m
Just a kid without a better plan
             A2                              F#m
But it's the simple thoughts that haunt me the most
    B
I never got to see the west coast

[Segunda Parte]

A2      E                 B
Spent my nights just asking why
       F#m                   A2
Would God let me become like this
         E              B
Was it a joke from the start?
        F#m                   A2
Was I supposed to laugh more at it?
A2             E                          B
And everyone's quoting their teachers and preachers
           F#m                  A2
But their words make me feel so alone
A2    E                    B
No one ever says that they've had those thoughts
         F#m                A2
In the middle of the night
A2   E                    B
No one ever admits that they wanted to take their life

The drink slips down my throat
         Abm
And the burn cures nice and slow
         F#m                                 B
All the worst parts I wouldn't want you to see
                       E
The only parts left of me

Now, here I am
        C#m

[Terceira Parte]

             C#m
But it's the life I dreamed I have
      C
The love I would find in my grasp
      B                         F#m
The words I could share with someone
         C#m
Those thoughts keep the breath in my lungs
        C
That tomorrow my hope will become
    B                               F#m
Fulfilled by a love that can't be undone
    A2    E         B
And save a wretch like me

[Refrão]

            E
So if the drink slips down your throat
         Abm
And the burn cures nice and slow
         F#m                                  B
All the worst parts you wouldn't want me to see
                          E
The same parts, I have in me
                           C#m
Now, scares me too we are both this way
                    A2
I feel just like you do
                                        F#m
But when you're by yourself you should know
     B
One day we got to see the west coast
