Wesley Why? - Matt Wertz

[Intro]
Em, C  x2

[Verse1]

G
It's cold in the living room on Linden Wood
D
It's quiet 'round the table tonight
Em                                C 
It's half empty in this house and this half don't know what to do
Em      D                            G          Em
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us so soon? 

G
We keep stumbling through the words to explain it all
D
We keep searching for the beauty in the dust
Em                        C                         
We keep telling ourselves that it was your time
D                     C                G          D 
Wesley, why can't you just be here tonight.

Em                   C
Glasses at the bedside
G                D
Keys are in the car
Em                  C
Shoes are on the staircase
G                          D  (play out for next line to)
And you're beating in our hearts
D                        C              G
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us so soon

[lead break]

[Single Strum]
G
We keep waiting for your footsteps at the back door
D
We keep waiting for the punch line to the joke
Em                               C 
We keep shedding these tears and shouting at the moon
D                      C                 G          
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us so soon?

Em               C
Glasses at the bedside
G                D
Keys are in the car
Em                    C
Hey, shoes are on the staircase
G                     D   
And you're beating in our hearts
D                            C           G
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us so soon?
D                            C           G   
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us so soon?
D                          C       [end on C]
Wesley, why'd you have to leave us?
