Where Were You When The Sky Opened Up

C F Am G


[Verse 1]
C                    F
Stay, I need to be myself
                   Am
I think I'll go to Austin
                   G        C
Take every road I know, be alone
                   F
I’d ask you for forgiveness
                     Am
If I think I could deserve it
                   G
I know I lost the one
                   C
And now I lost the way


[Pre-Chorus]
             F             Am
Fillin' that hole in my own chest
             G             C
Feelin' that old and lonely way
             F           Am
Seein’ that hold onto my legs
        G
Onto my legs


[Chorus]
C                                       F
  Where were you when the sky opened up?
                Am
Is that when we died?
                G
Is that when we learned to survive?
C                                F
  Watch me as I cut through my relationships
            Am
I hold onto love
                   G
Then I leave on my own again


[Interlude]
C F Am G x2


[Verse 2]
C                      F
Wait, I need to keep myself
                  Am
I think I heard a knocking
              G             C
Of everyone I know still at home
                    F
I'd ask them for forgiveness
                         Am
If I think they could discern it
                   G                      C
I know I lost the one, and now I lost the way


[Pre-Chorus]
             F             Am
Fillin' that hole in my own chest
             G             C
Feelin' that old and lonely way
             F           Am
Seein’ that hold onto my legs
        G
Onto my legs


[Chorus]
C                                      F
  Where were you when the sky opened up?
                Am
Is that when we died?
                G
Is that when we learned to survive?
C                                F
  Watch me as I cut through my relationships
            Am
I hold onto love
                   G    C
Then I leave on my own again


[Interlude]
C F Am G


[Bridge]
              C                     F
I let it wash over me, I let in the world
             Am                          G
And even the opening, we'll see where it goes
                 C                              F
I'll give you my honesty, don't leave here with hope

Don’t leave here alone
Am
  Don’t be like you were
G
  Don't be like you are now


[Chorus]
C                                      F
  Where were you when the sky opened up?
                Am
Is that when we died?
                G
Is that when we learned to survive?
C                                F
  Watch me as I cut through my relationships
            Am
I hold onto love
                   G
Then I leave on my own again
C                                      F
  Where were you when the sky opened up?
                Am
Is that when we died?
                G
Is that when we learned to survive?
C                                F
  Watch me as I cut through my relationships
            Am
I hold onto love
                   G
Then I leave on my own again


[Outro]
              C                     F
I let it wash over me, I let in the world
             Am                          Am
And even the opening, we’ll see where it goes
                 C                              F
I'll give you my honesty, don't leave here with hope

Don't leave here alone
Am
  Don’t be like you were
G
  Don't be like you are now
