Intro: C D  Em D (2x)  

Verse 1:  
  
C            C 
 I heard you say 
     Em                   D 
That you don't feel like you're worth saving 
C                C 
 If it's all the same 
    Em           
You can put the blame on me 

         C                  C 
I looked into your eyes to find the light 
          Em                           D 
I've been gone for years and there are only tears left 
       C             C 
But it came so soon 
Em        D 
1983 on a Monday afternoon 




C   D   Em            D         
        Don't make it better for me 
C   D   Em            D      
        I wish you'd just stop pretending 
C   D   Em            D      
        Everyone is here for you 
C                     D      
        Your life is beautiful and... 


VERSE 2:
 
C                      C  
And you better hold me down 
         Em                          D 
Stand me up, keep me safe, while I'm falling to pieces 
     C           C             Em                       D   
And, and tell me how should I bid when all I know is to break 
           C              C 
You didn't have to lie, I know you tried 
    Em                             D    
You took what they give, expecting time to heal you 
C             C 
 But it came so soon 
      Em         D 
It was…3:11 on a Tuesday afternoon 




C   D   Em            D         
        Don't make it better for me 
C   D   Em            D      
        I wish you'd just stop pretending 
C   D   Em            D      
        Everyone is here for you 
C                     D      
        Your life is beautiful and... (3x) 


            C            D 
No one ever takes, your place 
             C                 D 
No one really smiles quite like you 
                 C           D 
I wish I knew the words, to say 
           C 
Other than goodbye… 
                 D 
To this everyday life 

C   D   Em            D         
        It's so much harder for me 
C   D   Em            D         
        Cause you were so undefended 
C   D   Em            D         
        and I don't think you ever knew 
C                   D 
        It was so beautiful and… 
  
C   D   Em            D         
        Don't make it better on me 
C   D   Em            D         
        I wish you'd just stop pretending 
C   D   Em            D         
        We're all here waitin' for you 
C                   D         
        This is your beautiful ending  

You were so…
