(CHORDS - SPARSELY FINGER PICK BUILDING ON CHORUSES -  & LYRICS)

G                                                         D

I’ve often wondered                             ‘bout my place in this

Am                                                       C

Should I cry out                                    Or should I kiss

G                                                         D

I’ve never known                                  What it is to die

Am                                                       Em                               D        

But now I feel                                       That I know why

                                   

G                                                         D

There are those                                     Whose life I feel

Am                                                       C

But I am one                                         Who cannot heal

G                                                         D

So I sit back                                         And say how sad

Am                                                       Em                               D

While others fight                                  No meaning lack

G                                                         D

NOW YOU ARE GONE                    BUT WHAT THE HELL

Am                                                       C                                             D

WHAT DID YOU CHANGE              THAT WENT SO WELL

G                                                         D

BUT YOUR SMALL CHANGE         AND COME WHAT MAY

Am                                                       Em                               D        

ALLOWS THE SUN                           TO RISE TODAY

G                                                         D

And then the saddest fate of all  Cut down in prime

Am                                                       C

While we who sit                                  And watch the time

G                                                         D

And upside down                                 the music rings

Am                                                       Em                   D

As right side up,                                    our material things

G                                                         D

So should I crave                                  a life that shines

Am                                                       C

Or should I course                                the path that sings

G                                                         D

And when I die                         What will I say

Am                                                       Em                               D

That I tried hard                                    For another way

G                                                         D

NOW YOU ARE GONE                    BUT WHAT THE HELL

Am                                                       C                                             D

WHAT DID YOU CHANGE              THAT WENT SO WELL

G                                                         D

BUT YOUR SMALL CHANGE         AND COME WHAT MAY

Am                                                       Em                               D        

ALLOWS THE SUN                           TO RISE TODAY

G                                                         D

A difference makes                               Those who stand and fight

Am                                                       Em                               D

After the fact                                        We feel the sight

G                                                         D

It makes far cry,                                   for to be brave

Am                                                       Em                   D

It takes far less,                                    to be a slave

G                                                         D

So when I see,                          someone who cares,

Am                                                       C

I think how brave                                  But I only stare.

G                                                         D

So when I see,                          someone who cares,

Am                                                       Em                               D

I think how brave                                  But I only stare.

G                                                         D

NOW YOU ARE GONE                    BUT WHAT THE HELL

Am                                                       C                                             D

WHAT DID YOU CHANGE              THAT WENT SO WELL

G                                                         D

BUT YOUR SMALL CHANGE         AND COME WHAT MAY

Am                                                       Em                               D        

ALLOWS THE SUN                           TO RISE TODAY

G                                                         D

NOW YOU ARE GONE                    BUT WHAT THE HELL
