verse 1
 Bm                               A                     G                     F# 
It was many years ago when we brought you away.
 Bm                                         A         G           F# 
The disease that you got, it wasn?t okay.
 Bm                           A                 G                                           F# 
We didn?t speak about it, because that is how we are.

But we were crying out of our hearts.
verse 2
 Bm                         A                             G                                 F# 
I got bullied at school and my grades, they were bad.
 Bm                         A                             G                           F# 
I didn?t care about it because you were in my head.
 Bm                                           A                                     G                                 F# 
They thought I had some blackouts, at least that is what they said.
 Bm                     A                                         G                                         F# 
But I just couldn?t function with the problems in my head.
 Bm                                             A                         G                                             F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out.
 Bm                                               A                                     G                           F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around.
 Bm                                             A                         G                                               F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out.
 Bm                                               A                                     G                           F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around.

For that long?
verse 3
 Bm                 A                         G                   F# 
My family was struggling and so was I.
 Bm                 A                             G                                 F# 
We didn?t talk about it, all we did was fight.
 Bm                               A  G                       F# 
We only used words, just to make clear.
 Bm                                     A                                     G                                         F# 
But we knew that it hurt you, when you stood up out that chair.
verse 4
 Bm                           A                                         G           F# 
And you know that I?m sorry but I really can?t tell
 Bm                           A                                         G           F# 
Because that?s how we are, all our feelings, they are shelled.
 Bm                           A       G                       F# 
And now I am crying, writing this song.
 Bm                           A       G                       F# 
What is our purpose, what did I do wrong?
 Bm                                             A                         G                                             F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out.
 Bm                                               A                                     G                           F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around.
 Bm                                             A                         G                                               F# 
I do not want to think about it. I do not want to speak it out.
 Bm                                               A                                     G                           F# 
I don?t want to tell the truth to you because you won?t stay around.
 BmA  G  F# 
For that long?
 BmA  G  F# 
For that long?
Verse 5
 Bm                               A                                                 G                         F# 
The school problems continued and I felt really depressed.
 Bm                               A                       G                                     F# 
I dropped out of college and I didn?t get much rest.
 Bm           A                         G                         F# 
What is he doing? And why is he gone.
 Bm                         A                           G                                 F# 
That where the questions, but they were the last.
Bridge
 Bm                   A 
The last to hear about it.
 G                                         F# 
The last to get a text.
 Bm                           A 
The last that thought about me.
 G                                         F# 
And the last that did their best.
