Capo: 3rd fret
G D
This is for my people who just lost somebody
Em C
Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady
G D
Put your hand way up high
Cadd9 D
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
G D
Mamas, Daddas, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
Em C
This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers
G D
Lift your head to the sky
Cadd9 D
'Cause we will never say bye
Em C
As a child, there were them times
G D
I didn't get it but you kept me in line
Em C
I didn't know why you didn't show up some times
D
On Sunday mornings and I missed you
D
But I'm glad we talked through
Em C
All them grown folk things separation brings
G
You never let me know it
D
You never let it show
Em C
Because you loved me, and obviously
G
There's so much more left to say
D G
If you were with me today face to face
Chorus:
G D Em
I never knew I could hurt like this
Em D
And everyday life goes on
Cadd9
I wish that I could talk to you for awhile
Cadd9
Miss you but I try not to cry
Em C D G
As time goes by
G D Em
And it's true that you've reached a better place
Em D
Still I'd give the world to see your face
Cadd9
And be right here next to you
Cadd9
But it's like you're gone too soon
Em C
Now the hardest thing to do is say
D
Bye bye
G D
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
D Cadd9
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
Cadd9 D
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
D
Bye bye

Em C
And you never got a chance to see how good I've done
G D
And you never got to see me back at number one
Cadd9 G
I wish that you were here to celebrate together
Cadd9 D
And I wish we could've spent the holidays together
Em C
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
G D
With the teddy bear you gave me that I held so tight
Cadd9 G
I thought you were so strong you'd make it through whatever
Cadd9 D
It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever
Chorus:
G D Em
I never knew I could hurt like this
Em D
And everyday life goes on
Cadd9
I wish that I could talk to you for awhile
Cadd9
Miss you but I try not to cry
