[Verse]
   E                               
We built our home out on the slopes
Gbsus4                       
Pompeii beneath she lay above
    Gbsus4              
How she haunted our home
E                       
How she haunted our home
    E                    
You were a god in my eyes
Dbm7                            
Above the clouds above the skies
    Dbm7                 
You were a god in my eyes
    E         
You were a god
Gbm7 Dbm7 A E

            E                       
You took me walking through the town
              Gbsus4  Dbm7       
Showed me the statues underground
                             E    
Said just don't they look at peace
E                           
Sometimes I wish that was me
      E                     
I was the son you always had
                Gbm7                Dbm7
Tugging at your coat while you were sad 
                         A  
I was the son you always had
                  E         
I was the son you always had
Gbm7 Dbm7 A E

[Chorus]
      E  
Don't cry
     Gbm7             
Hold your head up high
    Dbm7             
She would want you to
          A          
She would want you to
E                    
Please just don't cry
     Gbm7             
Hold your head up high
          Dbm7       
She would want you to
    A                
She would want you to
E Gbm7 Dbm7 E

[Verse]
                             Gbm7
You said stay in the car and wait
                                   Dbm7
There's just some things I have to say 
                          E  
Don't you know I miss her too
           E                  
I miss her just as much as you
                    Gbm7
So my father and my son 
                      Dbm7 
As you end what she's begun
                          A   
You'll lie patient by her side
           E                     Gbm7 Dbm7
With roses red come lilies white ■    ■   
E                              
■ I was too young to understand
                               Gbm7 
The flowers slipping from your hands
Dbm7                         
I was too young to understand
                   A          E
I was too young to understand ■
                   B         
I was too young to understand
            B                    
The flowers sleeping in her hands
                   E         
I was too young to understand
                   E         
I was too young to understand
