[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A D
Her eyes were closed
A D
When I caught her in bed
E A D
She seemed much happier then
A D
I sat by her side
A D
And I couldn't help but cry
E A D
I was here for a reason and I
[Chorus]
E A
Finally understood
D A E
And my oh my
D D A E
Could only ask myself why oh why
E A
Can't we talk this through
D A E
And make things right
D D E A
I'd sure as hell like to try
[Verse 2]
A D
Right about this time
A D
She opened her eyes
E A D
And asked how long I had been there
A D
Well my tongue was tied
A D
I said nothing I just stared
E A D
Then she said: "Oh, I didn't think you cared."
E A D
And I wasn't ready for what she said next:
[Chorus]
E A
"There is nothing else
D A E
That you can do
D
You can't understand
D A E
What I go through
E A
And if the world has changed
D A E
Well I'll be damned
D E A
And I'm no good at being brave
D E A
Not even on the better days
D E A
And there are things we can not save
D D E A
Oh no matter how hard we try."
[Interlude]
A
D A DAE
D A DAE
[Chorus]
She said:
E A
"There is nothing else
D A E
That you can do
D
You can't understand
D A E
What I go through
E A
And if the world has changed
D A E
Well, you'll do fine."
D E A
I tried, but no I could not stand
D E A
I touched her with a trembling hand
D E A
I choked and could not say goodbye
D D E A
Oh no matter how hard I tried
We Win Again!
