We barely knew each others names, yet talked for hours.

Sharing drinks on the back porch on that cold december day.

pair of hazel eyes, watching the sunrise.
WITH PRE-CHORUS LEAD:
F#m G A D
Now Im taking an hour drive to this hospital just to watch you

die and I cant grip this steering wheel.
F#m G A D
And Id dare the optimist to find the good that came out of this
(D) A G
come Im at a loss for words.
CHORUS:
Bm G D A
And I hear those angels knocking at your door sweety,
Bm G D A
dont let them in. No, dont you dare open.
Bm G D A
Are you tired of breathing heavily when youre laying in bed at night,
Bm G D
trying to sleep? Well ill let you go if youre suffering.
D A | G A | x2
WITH VERSE LEAD:
D A G A
The weight is sliding off your bones and your

hairs slowly getting thin, leaving wrinkles in your skin.

The doctors said go pack your things, so we
D A G
found you a wooden home, to spend the rest of your days alone.
WITH PRE-CHORUS LEAD:
F#m G A D
Now Im taking an hour drive to this hospital just to watch you

come Im at a loss for words.

And I hear those angels knocking at your door sweety,
Bm G D A
dont let them in. No, dont you dare open.

trying to sleep? Well ill let you go if youre suffering.
