Song For Josh

	  		 
 


So this song's for Josh 

G       A*      D       x2 

                  G     A* 
Why didn't you call? 
                  D 
My phone's always on 
                  G     A* 
Why didn't you call? 
               D 
Before you got gone 


      G                            A* 
And I can't say for certain what I would have said 
    D                   G 
But now I am helplessly silent instead 
          G                             A* 
There's a hole in my heart and in my head 
                  D 
Why didn't you call? 


                  G          A*                         D 
Why didn't you say something, on the last time we met? 
                  G          A*                         D 
Why didn't you say something? There's always hope left 
      G                            A* 
And I can't say for certain what I would have done 
    D                   G 
But I can't do anything now that you're gone 
       G                           A*                      D 
And it kills me to think that for a second you felt alone 


            A                     Bm         A              G 
Now you can measure the mark of a man on the day that he died 
          A                     Bm                      G 
In the mixture of memory and wreckage that he leaves behind 
      Em                              D/F#            G                             A 
And I know you were carrying too much weight on the evening when you slipped away 
      Bm               A                   G            A               D 
But I loved you like a brother, man, and I never really had a chance to say 


      G                   A*                       D 
So at half past nine each evening, I'll think of my friend 
       G                        A*                          D 
And at half past nine, I'll remember you were better than your end 
        G                         A*                           D                            G 
Cause I too have stood up on that ledge, but I know you'd have pulled me back down from the edge 
    G                      A*                   D 
And I let you down in your darkness, I wasn't there 


            G                 A*                             Bm 
So I'll remember you making a hole through the kids in the crowd 
          G                   A*                Bm 
And I remember you lifting me up, each time I fell down 
         G                             A* 
And I'll glance at the barrier when I'm watching the band 
           D                           G 
And I'll expect to see you there stood on the foot stand 


      Em           D           G 
But I guess I will see someone else 
Em               D            G 
That's when I'll whisper to myself 
A         G             D 
Brother I miss you like hell...
