Intro 
Bm A G F# 

verse 1 
Bm                A           G           F# 
It was many years ago when we brought you away. 
Bm                     A     G      F# 
The disease that you got, it wasn?t okay. 
Bm              A         G                      F# 
We didn?t speak about it, because that is how we are. 
Bm          A      G          F# 
But we were crying out of our hearts. 

verse 2 
Bm             A               G                 F# 
I got bullied at school and my grades, they were bad. 
Bm             A               G              F# 
I didn?t care about it because you were in my head. 
Bm                      A                   G                 F# 
They thought I had some blackouts, at least that is what they said. 
Bm           A                     G                     F# 
But I just couldn?t function with the problems in my head. 

Bm                       A             G                       F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out. 
Bm                        A                   G              F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around. 
Bm                       A             G                        F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out. 
Bm                        A                   G              F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around. 
Bm A G F# 
For that long? 
Bm A G F# 
For that long? 


verse 3 
Bm         A             G          F# 
My family was struggling and so was I. 
Bm         A               G                 F# 
We didn?t talk about it, all we did was fight. 
Bm                A G            F# 
We only used words, just to make clear. 
Bm                   A                   G                     F# 
But we knew that it hurt you, when you stood up out that chair. 

verse 4 
Bm              A                     G      F# 
And you know that I?m sorry but I really can?t tell 
Bm              A                     G      F# 
Because that?s how we are, all our feelings, they are shelled. 
Bm              A    G            F# 
And now I am crying, writing this song. 
Bm              A    G            F# 
What is our purpose, what did I do wrong? 

Bm                       A             G                       F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out. 
Bm                        A                   G              F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around. 
Bm                       A             G                        F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out. 
Bm                        A                   G              F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around. 
Bm A G F# 
For that long? 
Bm A G F# 
For that long? 


Verse 5 
Bm                A                         G             F# 
The school problems continued and I felt really depressed. 
Bm                A            G                   F# 
I dropped out of college and I didn?t get much rest. 
Bm      A             G             F# 
What is he doing? And why is he gone. 
Bm             A              G                 F# 
That where the questions, but they were the last. 

Bridge 
Bm          A 
The last to hear about it. 
G                     F# 
The last to get a text. 
Bm              A 
The last that thought about me. 
G                     F# 
And the last that did their best.
