Intro: Bm | G | Em |A x2 
       D  | G | Em | A 


Bm                          D 
Things were all good yesterday  
                                 A  G 
And then the devil took your memory  
                          D      G 
And if you fell to your death today,  
                                    Bm 
I hope that heaven is your resting place  

Bm                                    A  D 
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain 
                                   A G  
then that could've been the medicine 
                                  A  
And now you're lying in the bed again 
A 
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them 




Pre-Chorus 

G      D         Bm 
And my father told me so 
D 
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face 
G         D            Bm 
And you're not the only one 
            G       D            A 
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see 

Chorus  

Bm                   G 
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night 
Em            A 
And your life inside, a little while with you more  
Bm                     G 
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up  
Em                     A 
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love 

Bm                       G 
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut 
Em                   A 
for they're designed to be together  
Bm                      G 
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one 
Em             A 
And we'll set alight, we're afire love 

D   Em    G   A 




Verse 

Bm                          D 
Things were all good yesterday 
                                      A  G 
And then the devil took your breath away 
                           D G 
And now we're left here in pain  
                                       Bm 
Black suit black tie standing in the rain 

Bm                           A D  
And now my family is one again  
                                             A G 
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend 
                                           A 
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen  
A 
Six years old I remember when  



Pre-Chorus  

G      D         Bm 
And my father told me so 
D 
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face 
G         D            Bm 
And you're not the only one 
            G       D            A 
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see 


Chorus 

Bm                   G 
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night 
Em            A

Bm                     G 
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up  
Em                     A 
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love 

Bm                       G 
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut 
Em                   A 
for they're designed to be together  
Bm                      G 
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one 
Em             A 
And we'll set alight, we're afire love 





Bm   G    Em   A 

Bm                        G 
My father, and all of my family  
                 Em                  A 
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah 
       Bm                     G 
And my brother and all of my family  
                Em                   A 
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah     x2
