Dear Death

Cadd9      Am                    
Time is running out as you die 
                 Cadd9
die die in this bed not making a 
sound
       Am       Em       G       
It has all come crashing down to 
   Dm        Em                   
be here and watch you breathe your
  G
 last
   Dm          Cadd9       
So helpless to stop you from 
  Em
slipping away so fast

                           Cadd9
Oh God are you listening now
        Am                       
As this cancer dances through her 
                   Cadd9
and then takes a bow
   Am         Em        G
It won't disappoint the crowd
      Dm          Em
whose words are a curse
     G                Dm
as I hear them one-by-one
       Cadd9    Em
Please pull the string and I come 
undone

Am              Dm           
I know this I failed to say I'm 
      Cadd9             Em      Am
sinking by your side
                  Dm            
You're worth this I wouldn't 
Cadd9   Em                       
trade a day to not have gone 
    Am
through this
        Dm             Cadd9
So many days I've been blind

          Em              Am
I want to stop and rewind
             Dm        G          
Kick off our shoes and dance with 
             Cadd9
the ghost of you
          Am                   
Who could tease me and leave me 
                 Cadd9
begging for the abuse
           Am   Em    G      
You're the only one I knew that 
         Dm           Em          
could tame me and make me who I am
  G

    Dm                Cadd9    
But now there's self-blaming and 
           Em
there's nothing left of all my plans


Am              Dm           
I know this I failed to say I'm 
      Cadd9             Em      Am
sinking by your side
                  Dm            
You're worth this I wouldn't 
Cadd9   Em                       
trade a day to not have gone 
    Am
through this
        Dm             Cadd9
So many days I've been blind
          Em              Am
I want to stop and rewind
             Dm        G
Kick off our shoes and dance
             G
Let's dance again
                  G
We'll turn up our sleeves
            Cadd9    Am
I know just where to begin
G                   Cadd9
Dance let's dance again
         Dm   Em  G     Am Dm 
We could find ourselves before
Em   G   Am
 this happens

      Am                Cadd9
These words of mine are trite and so
 cliche
Am                       Cadd9
Still we find a place in everything
     Am                Cadd9      
It's just to break the silence 
      Em            G
that has been crushing me
Am            Cadd9
Half of me is dead already gone
Am                Cadd9
Half is screaming everyone is wrong
Am      Cadd9  Em               
Finally asking now will you just
          Cadd9
 hear me out
         Dm     Am
This was all my fault
               Cadd9         
You brought me death and it's 
  Dm           G Em
everything I wanted
         Am            Dm      
It's the wrong side of fear that 
          G
kept me out
