Intro: C   G/B   Am - F - C 


verse 1: 
C 
I come in to tuck her in 
G/B                                
I'm so tired from where I've been 
Am           F           C  
Doing all I can to stay awake 
C 
As she goes on about her day 
  G/B 
I hang on every word she says 
    Am              F                 C 
She reaches out and puts her hand in mine 


Pre-Chorus 
       G 
For a moment 
Am             F 
We are here together 
       G            Am                 F 
And it hits me that this won't last forever 


C 
We can't own it 
G/B                            Am    F 
We just get to hold it for a while  
      C 
This life 
C                
We can't keep it 
   G/B                  Am    F 
Or save it for another time 
      C 
This life
 


verse 2: 
C 
He was always there for me 
G/B 
Now he's fighting just to breathe 
  Am              F        C 
I tell him it's ok to let go 
C 
As I look into his eyes 
  G/B 
I know that this won't be the last time 
Am                 F                 C 
But for now, we're taking different roads
