Things You Left Behind

Em C G D

[Verse 1]
Em                              C
These are the things you left behind
G                                 
An old record player, half a 
      D
bottle of wine
Em                             
Some pictures of days gone by to 
    C
remind
G                    D
Of the joy in your smile
Em                             
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some 
   C
time
G                              
If you're ever around, would you 
                   D
please give me a sign
Em                                
And I'll look after your things 
            C
like they were mine
G                             D
All of the things you left behind

[Verse 2]
Em                        
Picking up the pieces of an 
                 C
impossible puzzle
G                                 
Sealed all the secrets, the signs 
           D
were so subtle
Em                                
Maybe you were too shy or your 
            C
pride was too high
G                              
Or you'd lie and deny to try and 
                   D
hide all your trouble
Em                                
Now only questions remain with no 
            C
easy answers
G                              D
 the pain, the harm you hear after
Em                                
The pressure and the strain every 
            C
day you had to
G                                 
have sustained maybe made you feel
         D
 in a way there were no second 
chances

[PreChorus]
Em                              C
I wish you would have opened up
G                     D
Opened up just enough
Em                         C
Just enough to see how much
G                      D
How much you were truly loved

[Chorus]
Em                             C
I wish you would have opened up
G                      D
Opened up just enough
Em                              C
Just enough to see how much you were
 truly loved
Em                C
These are the things you left behind
Em                              C
Some pictures of days gone by to 
remind
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
Of the joy in your smile
G                             D
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some 
time
Em                              C
If you're ever around, would you 
please give me a sign
G                             D
And I'll look after your things like
 they were mine
Em                              C
All of the things you left behind

[Verse 3]
Em                              C
I still hear an echo of your voice 
in your laughter
G                             D
And I do still remember the moments 
you captured
Em                              C
Flame you spark lit up the dark and 
burned brighter and faster
G                             D
The story ain't over, we've just 
closed the chapter
Em                              C
Now forever after the whole world is
 inspired
G                             D
A billion little candles with light 
from your fire
Em                              C
Shining like the stars where you're 
up
G                             D
I hope that you can see now how much
 you were loved

[Chorus]
Em                              C
These are the things you left behind
G                             D
An old record player, half a bottle 
of wine
Em                              C
Some pictures of days gone by to 
remind
G                  D
Of the joy in your smile
Em                              C
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some 
time
G                             D
If you're ever around, would you 
please give me a sign
Em                              C
And I'll look after your things like
 they were mine
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
All of the things you left behind
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
So many things, so many things, so 
many things you left behind
G                             D
I'm one of the things you left 
behind
