    C
the end of june came
    Am
and took you away
C
we were all crying
     Am
felt like i was dying
      F                   Am
black dress & black shoes
     G
tied laces for you
    F             Am
the saddest of days
    G
why couldn’t we save...

  you?


Verse:
C
inside my head
       Am
at the edge of the bed
      C
where somberness lay
        Am
in your children that day
   F                Am
as goodbyes are spent
    G
holding on to what’s left
    F               Am
the saddest of days
    G
why couldn’t we save...


Chorus:
C
  you?
    Am           F
why couldn't we save...
C          Am  F
  you?

Verse:
C
nothing but ashes
       Am
in the old fire place
     C
with all of the memories
Am
he has erased
F          Am
heavier heels
    G
his mourning concealed
       F            Am
on the saddest of days
    G
why couldn't we save...
