Intro:
Dm Bb Gm C -x2-
F Bb Gm C

Dm C F
Things were all good yesterday
C Bb
And then the devil took your memory
F Bb
And if you fell to your death today,
Dm
I hope that heaven is your resting place

Dm C F
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
C Bb
then that could've been the medicine
C
And now you're lying in the bed again
C
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them

Pre-Chorus:
Bb F Dm
And my father told me son
F
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
Bb F Dm
And you're not the only one
Bb F C
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see

Chorus:
Dm Bb
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night
Gm C
And your life inside, a little while with you more
Dm Bb
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
Gm C
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love

Dm Bb
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Gm C
for they're designed to be together
Dm Bb
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Gm C
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

Interlude: F Gm Bb C

Verse:
Dm C F
Things were all good yesterday
C Bb
And then the devil took your breath away
F Bb
And now we're left here in pain
Dm
Black suit black tie standing in the rain

Dm C F
And now my family is one again
C Bb
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
C
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen
C
Six years old I remember when

Pre-Chorus:
Bb F Dm
And my father told me son
F
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
Bb F Dm
And you're not the only one
Bb F C
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see

Chorus:
Dm Bb
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night
Gm C
And your life inside, a little while with you more
Dm Bb
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
Gm C
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
Dm Bb
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Gm C
for they're designed to be together
Dm Bb
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Gm C
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

Interlude: Dm Bb Gm C

Dm Bb
My father, and all of my family
Gm C
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
Dm Bb
And my brother and all of my family
Gm C
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah -x2-
