Am C G D
You lived your life like you were on fire, but how could I dance?
Am C G D
When your soul just lifted me higher and higher and higher?
Am C G D
Paint bleeds, ink runs, image of your love
Dm G
Your memory, our history
(Why did you have to go?)
[Chorus]
Am C G D Am
I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time
C G D
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
Am C G D
And I could paint you picture perfect, even if I were blinded
Dm G
But you had to die for me to see how to live
Am C
(For me to see how, how)
G D
(For me to see how, ohhh)
Am C
(For me to see how, how)
G D
(For me to see how, ohhh)
Am C G D
I lived my life hiding in shadows, but now I can see
Am C G D
'Cause your soul is lifting me higher and higher and higher
Am C G D
Paint bleeds, I can't breathe, need you here with me
Dm G
Close my eyes, I can feel you close
(Why did you have to go?)
Am C G D Am
I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time
C G D
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
Am C G D
And I could paint you picture perfect, even if I were blinded
Dm G
But you had to die for me to see how to live
Am C G D
Angels fall, it's not your fault
Am C G D
Time goes on without you (without you)
Am C G D
Goodbye old friend, we'll meet again
Dm G
Life goes on without you
(Why did you have to go?)
Am C G D Am
I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time
C G D
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
Am C G D
And I could paint you picture perfect, even if I were blinded
Dm G
But you had to die for me to see how to live
Am C
(For me to see how, how)
G D
(For me to see how, live)
Am C
(For me to see how, how)
G D
(For me to see how, live)
