Biography:
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The chords aren't exactly similar to how he plays it in the official studio recording, but if you play with
capo 4 it should sound very similar to the song.
Intro: C Em Am
[First Verse]
C Em
If you and I, we die tomorrow
Am
would you be happy with all of the things we'd done?
C Em
Years that never seem to slow down
Am
'Till they're gone
C Em
The air, it seems, is getting cool now
Am
and I can feel my mind
C Em
Room is spinning round and round
Am
and fuck, please wake me up
C
Now I've got these memories in me until the day that I leave
Em Am
'Till the day I believe in the stories I read when I'm alone
C
I've got my family in Ohio and my girl in L.A

My mom and dad in Texas but I can't seem to stay for too long

Too long
[Refrain]

The promise I keep when I was crying and you held my hand
Fmaj7 C
Tell my mother that I'm gone and my sister that I love her so
Am
And oh my father he ought to know
Em G
I've been doing just fine on my own
C
On my own
[Verse 2]
C Em
Yeah I remember you laying down there
Am
You could hardly cry, saw in your eye
C Em
Then you told us it'll be okay
Am
But fuck, I'm still not okay, okay
C Em Am
Oh yeah, all of this hurt I sing about for the chimes, the chimes
C Em
Yeah, I know I should've shown you my face more
Am
But it was easier for me to drink away my pain
Am
Now I think about it every day
C
Yeah, you said, "Now Julia and I have an angel above
Em Am
And now there'll never be a day when she's not by our side, our side,"

My mom and dad in Texas but I can't seem to stay for too long
Am
For too long

C Em
If you and I, we die tomorrow
Am
would you be happy with all of the things we'd done?
[Final]
Fmaj7 C
Now and then, now and then, I just hold it in
Am Em
But oh my god, I feel it burning in my chest again
Fmaj7 C
And outside as the snow stuck, to the pavement
Am Em
My sister had tears rolling down her freezing skin
Fmaj7 C Em
Time-to-time I wonder why it had to happen so soon
C
Why'd it have to happen so soon
C Em Am C
Ooh, ooh, ooh
