F               C
And I saw it coming
        Em            Am
I saw emptiness and tragedy
F                        C
And I felt like running
            Em
So far away
                       F
Then knew I had to stay
                C
And I know I'm older
        Em                              Am
I look back and I still feel the pain
F               C            Em
I know I'll be stronger and I know I'll be fine
                C       Em      Am
For the rest of my days

(chorus)
         F              C       Em      Am
I've seen better days
        F          C    Em      Am
Put my face in my hands
        F                   C                 Em      Am
Get down on my knees and I pray to God
        F       C                    Em      Am
Hope he sees me through to the end

F                C
I notice most things
           Em            Am
But I didn't notice the change
F               C
It was hot in the morning
        Em
Then it turned so cold
                           F
Towards the end of the day
                 C
There was no conversation
          Em            Am
I just felt like I was in space
F              C
I needed my friends there
          Em
I just turned around
                              C Em      Am
You were gone without a trace

 Chorus x 1

(Single strum this first section)
F               C
Now I have just started
      Em              Am
And I wandered on to the end
F               C
There's nothing I have lost
        Em                      (strum)
That was once placed upon my hands
F               C
And all of these hard times
             Em           Am
There fading around the bend
F               C
And now that I'm wiser
        Em                      C               Em      Am
I cannot wait till I can help my friends

(chorus 2x)
F               C             Em        Am        F
Seen better     Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C             Em        Am        F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C             Em        Am        F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C             Em        Am        F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
