Bm A D
Things were all good yesterday
A G
And then the devil took your memory
D G
And if you fell to your death today,
Bm
I hope that heaven is your resting place
Bm A D
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
A G
then that could’ve been the medicine
A
And now you’re lying in the bed again
A
Either way I’ll cry with the rest of them
Pre-chorus:
G D Bm
And my father told me son
D
It’s not his fault he doesn’t know your face
G D Bm
And you’re not the only one
G D A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see
Chorus :
Bm G
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night
Em A
And your life inside, a little while with you more
Bm G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
Em A
And we’re wrapped in light, in life and love
Bm G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Em A
for they’re designed to be together
Bm G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Em A
And we’ll set alight, we’re afire love
D Em G A

Things were all good yesterday
A G
And then the devil took your breath away
D G
And now we’re left here in pain
Bm
Black suit black tie standing in the rain
Bm A D
And now my family is one again
A G
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
A
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen
A
Six years old I remember when
