there's some old flowers on the kitchen table

some photos taped upon the wall

closet full of empty clothes hangars 
Am         F                G     C 
old box of kotex in the bathroom stall 


 
            G                            C 
and there's still life even after you're gone 
G                                    F             C 
still life even though the nights go on for way to long 
            G               F               C 
because i'm breathing even though i can't go on 
        F               G            C 
there's still life even after you're gone 



Verse 2:
 
there's some gaps in my CD collection 
dog door, but there ain't no dog 
'cause you took the dang dog when you left me 
all that you left me was this cold gray fog 

Repeat Chorus 

Bridge:
 
F                 G                     C             F 
i know that friends some time are gonna take away the pain 
F          G                       C          F 
and that before too long i'll be on my feet again 
F          G                C             F 
but all i know is nights go on and on and on 
             F                G           C 
and there's still life even after you're gone 

Verse 3:
 
i get up for work every morning 
to somehow make it through the day 
and when they ask me how i'm doin 
i bite my lip, tell 'em man, everything's okay
