1Verse:
         G#4
2I won't hold my tongue.
                     C#5
3I'm not okay without you here.
                G#6
4I guess what's done is done.
                               C#7
5I just feel so exposed without you near.

A#m8                                C#9
8   And I won't say that I'm okay,
A#m10
9   'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                                   C#11   D#12
10So know that I'll miss you everyday.

12Pre-Chorus:
            G#13
13You always taught me to be good,
14
15And always do my best to be selfless
       C#14
16But I know that God is holding you
17
18And I am so damn jealous,
         A#m15
19'Cause I miss your arms around me
20
21And the way you make me laugh.
         D#16
22Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says
23
24You're never coming back.
25
26Chorus:
         G#17
27So I'm sitting in my room
28
29As I try to write this song.
        C#18
30I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.
31
32It's just that everything seems wrong,
           A#m19
33And I keep bursting into tears
34
35Because the pain won't go away,
             D#20
36Because the father took my best friend
37
38And said she cannot come out to play
         G#21   C#22   G#23   C#24
39Anymore.
40
41Pre-Chorus:
         G#25
42I won't hold my tongue.
                     C#26
43I'm not okay without you here.
         G#27
44I won't hold my tongue.
                     C#28
45I'm not okay without you here.
         G#29
46I won't hold my tongue.
                     C#30
47I'm not okay without you here.

50I guess what's done is done.
                               C#32
51I just feel so exposed without you near.
52
A#m33                                C#34
53   And I won't say that I'm okay,
A#m35
54   'Cause you taught me not to lie,
                                    C#36   D#37
55So know that I'll miss you everyday.
56
57Pre-Chorus:
            G#38
58You always taught me to be good,
59
60And always do my best to be selfless
       C#39
61But I know that God is holding you
62
63And I am so damn jealous,
         A#m40
64'Cause I miss your arms around me
65
66And the way you make me laugh.
             D#41
67And now I'm stuck inside this prison that says
68
69You're never coming back.

71Chorus:
             G#42
72And now I'm sitting in my room
73
74As I try to write this song.
        C#43
75I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.
76
77It's just that everything seems wrong,
           A#m44
78But I will try my best to be good
79
80So I can pay my way,
           D#45
81Straight through the pearly gates
82
83Into your arms so we can play
      G#46
84Once more.
85
86Outro:
G#47
87Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart
    C#48
88And uh, The only reason that isn't
                                   G#49
89Stated in my life is because of you
90
91And I really don't understand it God
92
93That you Introduced me to
94
95What would take you away so fast
    C#50
96When you were the only person
97
98That ever understood a thing I ever said
99
100And I really don't understand
                              G#51
101How to deal with this anymore
102
103And, I'm just really not okay with this
   C#52
104And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
                              G#53
105But I don't want to be selfish
106
107I don't want you to be in heaven
108
109I want you to be back down here
110
111I don't want you to be there
                      C#54
112I want you to be here
113
114What am I supposed to do now
                      G#55 C#56 G#57 C#58  fade out...
115That's all I'm asking
