Away When You Were Here

	  		

Verse 1:
 
A                   Esus4        E 
Dad I know you were sad when you died  

          A              D              A     E 
And I was young it's the way I kept you in my mind  

    A                         Esus4  E 
The mess that was left and my mother cried  

                   A          D               A      E 
And when she stood up she was nobody's mother I'd be fine  

tabchorus
D A But I missed you then D A And I miss you now F#m A E Liked you'd missed things I might say D A You're still lost in clouds D A But I'm older now F#m A E I can see through lifting haze Bm A E D That you were away even when you were here

Verse 2: A Esus4 E Sometimes a phrase or a manner that's you A D Comes through me, it goes in a flash A E It's a frame, it's a blink like life A Esus4 E Oh and how much now should we pay for the past A D A E Cause you could age with grace if I freed you in my mind
tabchorus
D A But I loved you then D A And I love you now F#m A E All the things I wished I'd asked D A When I'm lost in clouds D A I remember how F#m A E I was robbed and I was blessed Bm Bm And you were away even when you were here

Bridge: F#m E Bm Cause it's not about you, not you, anymore F#m E It's about what I'd do with it all C#7 D A D A F#m A E And I, I'll never let you let me down Break: D A D A F#m A E Outro: A Esus4 E This morning I wake to be older than you were A D A E fresh like snow, for miles, every footstep will be mine D A D A You'd have lost that weight, you'd have gone so straight F#m A E You'd have made my wedding day D A D A You'd have saved my youth from that point of truth F#m A E You'd have kept those wolves at bay Bm D A But you were away, you were away even when you were here
