You Weren't There

Intro:  G - C  C     - Em   Am  C  Em  - C

G                  C
 She came home, just won the game
C                           Em
 Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream
Am                      C
 All she wanted was to make you proud,
Em             C- Cmaj7  C- Cmaj7
 You weren't there


G                   C
 He had his birthday few days ago
C                           Em
 He got some presents, a big party too
Am                   C
 And there were congratulation calls
Em                                       D
 As the years before, not ever one from you


               C                  Am
You weren't there, distant, far away
                      Em                         D
It's like this every day, they see you in their heads
                  Am
Wonder if you'll come
                      C                         Em
Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again


G                      C
 She cut herself on a piece of paper
C                       Em
 It didn't hurt, but she saw the blood
Am                       C                  Em    C Cmaj7
 She could need that embrace, you weren't there

G                C
 Did he have to cry louder,
C                    Em
 Would that make you hear him
Am                        C              Em        D
 You see, his heart was broken, for the first ti___ime


              C                   Am
 You weren't there, distant, far away
                       Em                         D
 It's like this every day, they see you in their heads
                   Am
 Wonder if you'll come
                       C                         Em
 Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again
         D                C
 Cannot turn back time, a wish yet to come true
          Am               D       C
 They're making up these stories about you
               C                   Am
 You weren't there, distant, far away
                       Em                         D
 It's like this every day, they see you in their heads
                   Am
 Wonder if you'll come
                       C                         Em  D  C... fade
 Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again
