Intro- C Em C Em

            C
I held your ancient hand
            Em
I flashed a toothy grin
         C
And I’ve never cried
       Em
Like I saw you cry
         C
When you told me
         Em
That you knew you’d die
       C
If you went outside
           Em                       C
And it was colder than sixty five.
             Em          C
And I’m just happy I can fill your life
          Em               
Fill this cluttered house
     C        Em
With laughter again.
            C
It’s been a long long time
                    Em
Since your daughter died
        C
And I’m sorry
             Em
I dreamed of suicide
          C       Em
It wasn’t right.
  C
I know it makes you sad
                 Em
To think you may never see

Summer again
            C
And I would like to say

                  Em
There is a better place
      C
After this life.
         Em                     C    Em
Well I’m sorry, we only get one try.
