[Intro]

G C G C


[Verse 1]

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


[Break]

Am                                C
   And I won't say that I'm okay,
Am
   'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                                   C   D
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


[Pre-Chorus]

            G
You always taught me to be good,

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

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

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

You're never coming back.


[Chorus]

         G
So I'm sitting in my room

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

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

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

And said she cannot come out to play
         G   C   G   C
Anymore.


[Refrain]

         G
I won't hold my tongue.
                     C
I'm not okay without you here.
         G
I won't hold my tongue.
                     C
I'm not okay without you here.
         G
I won't hold my tongue.
                     C
I'm not okay without you here.


[Verse 2]

                G
I guess what's done is done.
                               C
I just feel so exposed without you near.


[Break]

Am                                C
   And I won't say that I'm okay,
Am
   'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                                    C   D
So know that I'll miss you everyday.


[Pre-Chorus]

            G
You always taught me to be good,

And always do my best to be selfless

But I know that God is holding you

And I am so damn jealous,

'Cause I miss your arms around me

And the way you make me laugh.

And now I'm stuck inside this prison that says

You're never coming back.

And now I'm sitting in my room

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

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

So I can pay my way,
           D
Straight through the pearly gates

Into your arms so we can play
      G
Once more.


[Outro]

(play G C over and over until end)

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

And I really don't understand it God

That you introduced me to

What would take you away so fast
    C
When you were the only person

That ever understood a thing I ever said

And I really don't understand
                              G
How to deal with this anymore

And, I'm just really not okay with this
   C
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
                              G
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
                      C
I want you to be here

What am I supposed to do now
                      G C G C  fade out...
That's all I'm asking
