F#m       D      B        F#m
When the sirens flash is gone
           E            F#m
And we're left to carry on
         D                E  C#m
All the memories are too few
F#m       D        B      F#m
When the pastor's music plays
          E            F#m
And that casket rolls away
         D              E
I could live again if you
      C#m
Just stay alive for me

Chorus:
F#m                   A             E
Please stay now, you left me here alone
B
It's the end of the line
F#m                  A            E
Please stay I can't make it on my own
C#m                F#m A E
Make it on my own, whoa
B                         F#m A E C#
It's the end of the line, whoa

Now that you are dead and gone
And I'm left to carry on
I could never smile cause you
Won't stay alive for me

Chorus:
Please stay now, you left me here alone
It's the end of the line
Please stay I can't make it on my own
(it's the end of the line)
Make it on my own, whoa
It's the end of the line, whoa

F#m    A E
Finally
      B             F#m
Your final resting day
A      E   C#m
Is without me
F#m A E
I weep
      B                F#m
And think of brighter days
A      E
What about me?

Chorus:
F#m                 A
You can't take back, the one mistake
E                          B
That still lives on after life it takes
F#m                     A
In that one day, that changed our lives
E                       C#m
And bitter memories are left behind

F#m                 A
You can't take back, the one mistake
E                          B
That still lives on after life it takes
F#m                     A
In that one day, that changed our lives
E                       C#m
And bitter memories are left behind

F#m                   A             E
Please stay now, you left me here alone
B
It's the end of the line
F#m                  A            E
Please stay I can't make it on my own
C#m                F#m A E
Make it on my own, whoa
B                         F#m A E C#
It's the end of the line, whoa
