Dm                    C     Dm
Things were all good yesterday
                              C  A#
And then the devil took your memory
                         F       A#
And if you fell to your death today
                                     Dm
I hope that heaven is your resting place
                               C       F
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                                 C   Gm
But then that could've been the medicine
                                 Am
And now you're lying in the bed again
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them

A#   F         Dm
And my father told me son
             Gm                      C
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
A#   F             Dm
And you're not the only one
             Gm              C
Although my grandma used to say, That he used to sing:

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

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

And my father told me son
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
And you're not the only one
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing

Chorus

        Dm         Am         A#
And my father, and all of my family
                                    C
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
And my mother, and all of my family
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
And my brother and all of my family
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
And my father, and all of my family
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
