D        G        D       G 

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
