Anything He Was

[Intro ]
Em7    D  G D/F# 
Em7    D  G D/F# 


 
Em7 
Practice run 
                               D         G D/F# 
You're saving up speed for the real thing 
Em7 
Buckled tight 
                                  D     G D/F# 
In the backseat of a long ride to healing 
Em7 
Dried up glue, hes still on you 
           Bm7 
And youre breathing on me 
Em7 
Honest truth 
                         G 
It feels a little better than leaving 
 

 
D                 G           D/F#   A 
I know I cant be anything he was to you 
A 
But I'll try to, try to 
D 
Nothing like he was 
    Em7            Bm7      A 
But I know what he meant to you 
A 
Ill try to, oh 
D 
Live up to em 
G        D/F# 
Memories proving 
         A 
You were happier doing 
                    D 
Anything we like to do 
     Em7    Bm7     A 
When he was next to you 
                   Em7    D  G D/F# 
Ill try to, try to 
 

 
Em7 
Filling shoes 
                                    D       G D/F# 
And clinging onto you, while youre sleeping 
    Em7 
You sobered up 
                              D     G D/F# 
And had enough of chasing the feelings 
Em7 
Waking to an empty room 
      Bm7 
After dreaming of you 
Em7 
Honest truth 
                               G 
I dont know what it really is youre needing 
 

 
D                 G           D/F#   A 
I know I cant be anything he was to you 
A 
But I'll try to, try to 
D 
Nothing like he was 
    Em7            Bm7      A 
But I know what he meant to you 
A 
Ill try to, oh 
D 
Live up to em 
G        D/F# 
Memories proving 
         A 
You were happier doing 
                    D 
Anything we like to do 
     Em7    Bm7     A 
When he was next to you 
A 
Ill try to, try to 
 

Interlude 
G    Bm7 


 
           G 
Youre the closest thing 
G 
To anything 
    Bm7 
And I know you dont mean to be rude 
          G 
By not promising, anything 
             Bm7                    C 
There's just nothing more you wanna do 
              Em7 
Im just wrestling 
Em7 
Because I think 
   Bm7 
In my mind youre not number two 
                 Em7            A   G 
But its nice to be anything at all 


{Out-Chorus} 
D                 G           D/F#   A 
I know I cant be anything he was to you 
A 
But I'll try to, try to 
D 
Nothing like he was 
    Em7            Bm7      A 
But I know what he meant to you 
A 
Ill try to, oh 
D 
Live up to em 
G        D/F# 
Memories proving 
         A 
You were happier doing 
                    D 
Anything we like to do 
     Em7    Bm7     A 
When he was next to you 
A 
Ill try to, try to
