Im Serious Im Sorry

[Verse]
E
I didn’t know that he got in a car crash
Abm
We could have been friends, could have got married
A
Could have had grandkids, sent them to college
Abm
Or at least attended each other’s weddings.

E
I didn’t know that you stayed home for hours
Abm
Calling his parents asking for answers
A
Skipping your prom night, crying and praying
Abm
Up to a God that you never believed in.

[Chorus]
E
Meghan held your body
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party
A
And I couldn’t leave the kitchen
Abm
I ingested too much poison

[Verse]
E
I wanted to tell you I know how it feels when
Abm
The people you love just start disappearing
A
Ashamed that you took their presence for granted
Abm
But I didn’t want to seem condescending

E
I didn’t know that you’d relive the moment
Abm
The doctor came out with a frown and a clipboard
A
And you wandered home with no ride feeling stupid
Abm
That you thought that this was a regular visit

[Chorus]
E
Meghan held your body
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party
A
And I couldn’t help from staring
Abm
And creating extra tension
E
Meghan held your body
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party
A
And I couldn’t leave the kitchen
Abm
I ingested too much poison

[Bridge]
Dbm
Were you supposed to not go to college?
A
Stay in your mom’s house on the computer
Abm
Googling grief cures, talking to no one
B
Waiting for life to start feeling better
A
Waiting for pain to not be a constant
B
Waiting to feel like anyone’s honest
Dbm
Waiting for me to stop being sarcastic
F#m
Because I can’t accept (because I can’t accept)
Because I can’t accept all the bad things that happen

[Chorus]
E
Oh, I swear I’m sorry
Abm
That I saw you at the party
A
That I stood there saying nothing
Abm
While you wept before your new friends
Dbm
Oh, I’m serious, I’m sorry
A
Oh, I’m serious, I’m sorry

[Outro]
E Abm A Abm (x2)
