D                 Bm
I never told you how I felt
G                            D  A
Though I thought I'd said it all
D                     Bm
And I never knew you needed help
G                                D    A
Well cause you always seemed so tough

Bm                 G
But now I'm here alone
                   D
Without you by my side
                A
If only I had known
                       Bm
That you kept it all inside
                         G
Now I'm trying to understand
                       D
Just trying to find a way
                        A
But forgive you I just can't
                   A
It's all just too much for me to take

Chorus:
Bm        G
And if I failed you well
   D                A
I swear I tried my best
Bm              G
But now you're gone so all
      D                A
your tears can lay to rest
            Bm
Just so you know
               G
You meant the world to us
    D                 A
I know that it's too late
Bm         G                D
And all I want is another chance
           A                  D
I can't accept that you have left

Look at all this damage done
Are you happy with yourself?
And we thought the best was yet to come
And, and I thought I knew you oh so well
And the days just go by
While the moment seems to last
Like catching fire
All is gone, and it all went up so fast

Chorus:
And if I failed you, well,
I swear I tried my best
And now you're gone,
so all your tears can lay to rest
Just so you know
You meant the world to us,
I know that it's too late
And all I want's another chance,
I can't accept that you have left
That you have left

And if I failed you, well,
I swear I tried my best
But now you're gone,
so all your tears can lay to rest
Just so you know
You meant the world to us,
I know that it's too late
But all I want's another chance,
I can't accept that you have left
That you have left
