D G D Bm A
Occured to me the other day, you've been gone now a couple years
G D Bm A G
Well, I guess it takes a while for someone to really disappear
D G D Bm A
I remember where I was when the word came about you
G D Bm A G
It was a day much like today, the sky was bright and wide and blue
G D G A
And I wonder where you are, and if the pain ends when you die
G Bm A G A
And I wonder if there was some better way to say goodbye
Today my heart is big and sore, it's trying to push right through my skin
I won't see you anymore, I guess that's finally sinking in
Cause you can't make somebody see by the simple words you say
All their beauty from within, sometimes they just look away
And I wonder where you are, and if the pain ends when you die
And I wonder if there was some better way to say goodbye
G A G A G A
Some better way to say goodby - y - y - y - y - y - y - y - y - ye
