Am          G
I would be lying if I said: "I'm fine"
Em          F
I think of you at least a hundred times
Am            G                      Em
'Cause in the echo of my voice I hear your words
F
Just like you're there
Am            G
I still come home from a long day
Em          F
So much to talk about, so much to say
Am          G                            Em
I love to think that we're still making plans
          F
In conversations that'll never end
In conversations that'll never end

Chorus:
 C                            F
Courage, don't you dare fail me now
   C                         Gsus4
I need you to keep away the doubts
      F                     Am
I'm staring in the face of something new
       C             F
You're all I got to hold on to
      F                             Gsus4 G
So, courage, don't you dare fail me now

Not one to hide from the truth, I know
It's outta my hands but I won't let you go
There's no replacing the way you touched me
I still feel the rush
Sometimes it drowns me 'til I can't breathe
Thinking it's only in our memories
But then I talk to you like I did then
In conversations that will never end

Chorus

                 C                    F
'Cause it's not easy when you're not with me
               Am                  Gsus4 G
This world of madness goes faster now
             C                        F
And it's a train wreck, but I won't crash, yet
             Am               Gsus4 G
Long as your echo never fades out

Chorus:
 C                            F
Courage, don't you dare fail me now
                 C                    F
'Cause it's not easy when you're not with me
               Am                  Gsus4 G
This world of madness goes faster now
             C                        F
And it's a train wreck, but I won't crash, yet
             Am               Gsus4 G
Long as your echo never fades out
 C                            F
Courage, don't you dare fail me now
