  			Bm                  D                 A         E 
You lived your life like you were on fire, but how could I dance? 
Bm              D             A                E 
When your soul just lifted me higher and higher and higher? 
Bm         D        A          E 
Paint bleeds, ink runs, image of your love 
Em               A 
Your memory, our history 

(Why did you have to go?) 

Bm  D              A         E              Bm 
    I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time 
D                A                  E 
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you 
            Bm          D              A              E 
And I could paint you picture perfect, even if I were blinded 
Em                 A 
But you had to die for me to see how to live 

Bm             D 
(For me to see how, how) 
A              E 
(For me to see how, ohhh)

(For me to see how, ohhh) 

Bm         D              A            E 
I lived my life hiding in shadows, but now I can see 
Bm         D                A            E 
'Cause your soul is lifting me higher and higher and higher 
Bm           D                A          E 
Paint bleeds, I can't breathe, need you here with me 
Em             A 
Close my eyes, I can feel you close 

(Why did you have to go?)

Em                 A 
But you had to die for me to see how to live 

Bm      D         A        E 
Angels fall, it's not your fault 
Bm       D         A       E 
Time goes on without you (without you) 
Bm        D         A        E 
Goodbye old friend, we'll meet again 
Em              A 
Life goes on without you 

(Why did you have to go?)

    I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time

And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
