It Took The Dead

C                                
In a wordless moment, everything 
F
changed
C                                  
And nothing I can do can take that 
F        G
away
                F                  
And the hardest part is not knowing
           C        G
 where you stand
                   F               
I think I may have lost you before 
     C
this began

[Verse 2]
C                                
So much pain, I thought it could 
F         C
end
But hello, sadness, you've joined me
  F        G
 again
               F                
Well pull up a chair, it'll be a 
       C        G
while because
                  F                
Turns I'm not the person I thought 
  C
I was

[Chorus]
Am               C
So come on, wake up
             G           F
You know I'm counting on you
  Am            C
I thought I was enough
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
   G       F
To pull us through
        F                  C
And I'm sorry for all I've done
               G                  
You know I was never good at this 
Am       F
part
G         C
And so it starts

[Verse 3]
C                                 
In a whimpering moment, the first 
         F        C
one went off
The air became thick, the ground 
       F       G
became soft
             F                     
And everyone feared just what would
  C        G
 arise
                         F   
But I took your hand and said 
                         C
"They'll never take us alive"

[Chorus 2]
Am               C
So come on, wake up
            G            F
The waiting starts right now
Am                    C
The end will come sometime
                  G                
But we don't know when, and we 
       F
don't know how
         F              C
And when all of this is done
              G                Am 
You'll be the only thing in my 
      F       G
heart
          C
And so it starts

Please don't let go
Am               F

No waiting     we are forever in
