[Verse 1]

A                       Bb             Dm
To mourn the end is to say goodbye
                                     Bb                  Dm
Not to yearn for that which we will never have again
                C           F            Bb          C ~~~     Dm
We cry for our life together because we know it will end
              Bb        F             Gm          C     Bm ~~~
And we try to understand how we could ever love again


[Chorus Part I]

Am      Bb     C       Am         Em ~~~      C
Whoooooaaaaaa-oooooh, save your tears
                   Dm      F*  E*  F
At the end of our time
               C           Dm       F  (Am)  Em
We've cried enough in our lives
             C          Dm     F     Em
Just kiss my ashes goodbye
                    D   Dm     C
Kiss my ashes goodbye
        Am   Dm   C
When I die
             Am          Dm   Am   Dm ~~~
Just kiss my ashes goodbye

[Verse 2]

 A                              Bb              Dm
We miss them so much now that they are gone
                           Bb                Dm
Took them for granted for living so long
               C          F               C         Dm
We read their words again, and we listen to them again
               Bb        F                  Gm      C          Bm ~~~
As we start to understand what they were trying to say all along

Who felt entitled to hold a place on the earth
