[Verse 1] F#m I try to sleep, but my eyes are open A I can't think cause my heart is broken D And there's a bottle right next to me E I'll down a few drinks just to take the pain away F#m I wanna say all the things I need to say A I won't lie, I'll just tell them honestly D If God can take a friend away from me E Then I can say all I want and he won't do anything
[Pre-Chorus 1] F#mD My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak AE I can't say nothing at all
F#mD Sleep well, my friend AE There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go F#mD Sleep well, goodnight A You're something to remember E I wish that you were here by my side
[Interlude] F#m
[Verse 2] F#m I spend hours tryna make it through the day A I don't know if I'll ever be the same D It's hard enough when you're all alone E In the city that you love, now Atlanta's just a burial ground
[Pre-Chorus 2] F#mD My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak AE I can't say nothing, nothing at all F#mDA It's hard to think when losing someone only make you wanna scream E And now that you're gone
[Chorus 2] F#mD Sleep well, my friend AE There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go F#mD Sleep well, goodnight A You're something to remember E I wish that you were here by my side
[Bridge] AD All the stained pieces, I can't believe this F#mE A mother shouldn't witness her son die at twenty-four (Please don't know this is for the hopeless, It's ripping me apart and I can't take it anymore) F#mDA I will hold my tongue for the rest of my life E I can't keep this up anymore
[Chorus 3] F#mD Sleep well, my friend AEF ~ There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go F#mD Sleep well, goodnight A You're something to remember EF#m I wish that you were here by my side
D By my side A By my side E By my side
[Chorus 4] F#mD Sleep well, goodnight A You're something to remember E I wish that you were here by my side
Note: about the F in chorus 3, this chord is optional. It may sound weird out of context, but you'll hear it in the song.

Hey, thanks for time, this is my first tab, let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions or if there's anything you need help with I'd happy be to provide it, just post a comment or send an email to [email protected].
This is a really great song and I wish you all the best luck in learning it, buy the cd it's freaking amazing.:D Ps. For beginners the chords of this song can also be played with the capo on 2 using Em, G, C, D. You can use the transpose button and go "Down 2 Half Steps" then all the chords become relative to the Capo, enjoy:D
Edit: Bridge, Chorus 1 picking, added F major to Chorus 3.
