Verse 1:
 
            B         D#m 
There was a phone call 
E                                    G#m      F# 
From the first ring I knew something weren’t right 
            B 
         D#m 
I heard your heart fall 
E                                    G#m      F# 
From your first word I knew you’d been crying 

Pre-Chorus
 
      B 
Yet to me the greatest gift 

Is knowing we’re gonna die 
      D#m 
But we don’t know when 

And we don’t know why 
   E 
So don’t hold back your tears 
             D#m  F# 
On days like these 

 
        E                   B 
Could it be you’ve gone too soon? 
    F#                G#m 
It’s hard to believe that someone planned this 
E                          F# 
But there’s nothing we can do 
        E                B 
I’ve got so much left to say 
      F#              G#m        C#m 
We’ve all got to die but I just need one day 
Em                              B 
   Before they take you away 


Verse 2:
              B        D#m 
You know what scares me 
E                                  G#m  F# 
Is the thought I might forget your voice 
       B 
I’m not scared of getting old but do I wanna be alive 
     D#m 
If I lose control or lose my mind? 
E 
Now I’m wishing I could hear you sing 
             G#m   F# 
On days like these 

 
        E                   B 
Could it be you’ve gone too soon? 
    F#                G#m 
It’s hard to believe that someone planned this 
E                          F# 
But there’s nothing we can do 
        E                B 
I’ve got so much left to say 
      F#              G#m        C#m 
We’ve all got to die but I just need one day 
Em                              B 
   Before they take you away

Maybe I’ll see you soon?
