    Intro played throughout verses

I was at your funeral just the other day.
All choked with tears, we knew youd gone away.
And up at the front I heard the man say
That the stars shine the brightest when the daylight goes away

{section: Intro}
You left us puzzled inside my friend
I respect your choice for the misery to end
Its not easy to understand your pain
But now your tears of anguish are falling down like rain

{section: Chorus}
[A]Now we sit a[B]round, try to figure [E]out, what [A]else
What els[A]e we might have done to [B]keep you around   [E]            [A]
[A]Telephone [B]call, note in the [E]mail    [A]
[F#m]Finally real[B]ized that you were on your [E]own   [Emaj9]
You were on your own.    [E]          [Emaj9]                   [E11]

I dont believe in the after life
But if by some chance its true
I know you will be there helping
Helping those right in front of you

And is it selfish for me to say
That I really miss your smile
Know where now it was hiding
Hiding your darkness all the while

{section: Chorus}
Some days I just dont wanna be
A student of life after all
Some of lifes lessons we are forced to learn
I could really do without them all

Now it time for me to reassure through this song
To all of us who love you
The silver lining of this cloud
Will win out, will win out, will win out
