Chorus:
B                    F#
Here's to the ones that we got
G#m                 D#m
Cheers to the wish you were here but you're not
             E               B
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
   E                 F#
Of everything we've been through

B                  F#
Toast to the ones here today
G#m                D#m
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
             E               B
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
         E              F#                        B
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you

           B             F#
There's a time that I remember,
        G#m             D#m
When I did not know no pain
        E             B
When I believed in forever,
           E                   F#
And everything would stay the same
        B                 F#
Now my heart feel like December,
          G#m           D#m
When somebody say your name
          E                  B
'Cause I can't reach out to call you,
        E              F#
But I know I will one day, ayy

B          F#
Everybody hurts sometimes,
G#m              D#m
Everybody hurts someday, ayy-ayy
E               B
But everything gon' be alright,
E                     F#
Go and raise a glass and say, ayy

Chorus:
B                    F#
Here's to the ones that we got
G#m                 D#m
Cheers to the wish you were here but you're not
             E               B
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories

I'll carry these torches for ya
           E              F#
That you know I'll never drop, yeah

B          F#
Everybody hurts sometimes
