  			F                C 
   And I saw it coming  
 
         Em           Am 
I saw emptiness and tragedy  
 
F                    C 
   And I felt like running  
 
        Em 
So far away  
                     F 
Then knew I had to stay  
 
                     C 
And I know when I'm older 
 
        Em                        Am 
I look back and I still feel the pain  
 
F                   C              Em 
   I know I'll be stronger and I know I'll be fine  
                     C    Em     Am                     
For the rest of my days  
 
(Chorus) 
      F             C    Em    Am 
I've seen better days  
 
       F               C    Em    Am 
Put my face in my hands  
 
   F             C           Em          Am 
Get down on my knees and I pray to God 
 
         F        C               Em    Am 
Hope he sees me through till the end---d
