C# D#So know that I'll miss you everyday.
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G#You always taught me to be good,
 
And always Do my best to be selfless
C#But I know that God is holding you
 
And I Am so damn jealous,
A#m'Cause I miss your arms around me
 
And the way you make me laugh.
D#Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says
 
You're never coming back.
 
 
[Chorus]
G#So I'm sitting in my room
 
As I try to write this song.
C#I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.
 
It's just that everything seems wrong,
A#mAnd I keep bursting into tears
 
Because the pain won't Go away,
D#Because the father took my best friend
 
And said she cannot come out to play
G# C# G# C#Anymore.
 
 
[Refrain]
G#I won't hold my tongue.
C#I'm not okay without you here.
G#I won't hold my tongue.
C#I'm not okay without you here.
G#I won't hold my tongue.
C#I'm not okay without you here.
 
 
[Verse]
G#I guess what's done is done.
C#I just feel so exposed without you near.

A#mBut I will try my best to be good
 
So I can pay my way,
D#Straight through the pearly gates
 
Into your arms so we can play
G#Once more.
 
 
[Outro]
 
G#Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart
C#And uh, The only reason that isn't
G#Stated in my life is because of you
 
And I really don't understand it God
 
That you introduced me to
 
What would take you away so fast
C#When you were the only person
 
That ever understood a thing I ever said
 
And I really don't understand
G#How to deal with this anymore
 
And, I'm just really not okay with this
C#And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
G#But I don't want to be selfish
 
I don't want you to be in heaven
 
I want you to be back down here
 
I don't want you to be there
C#I want you to be here
 
What supposed to Do now
G# C# G# C# That's all I'm asking
