Capo 9
GWe built our home out on the slopes,
AmPompeii beneath she lay above,
EmHow she haunted our home,
CHow she haunted our home.
GYou were a God in my eyes,
AmAbove the clouds above the skies,
EmYou were a God in my eyes,
CYou were a God.
GYou took me walking through the town
AmShowed me the statues underground,
EmSaid, "just don't they look at peace,"
CSometimes I wish that was me.
GI was the son you always had,
AmTugging at your coat while you were sad,
EmI was the son you always had,
CI was the son you always had.
Chorus
GJust don't cry,
AmHold your head up high,
EmShe would want you to,
CShe would want you to.
GPlease just don't cry,
AmHold your head up high,
EmShe would want you to,
CShe would want you to.
*Same chords for rest of song*
You said stay in the car and wait,
There's just some things I have to say,
Don't you know I miss her too,
I miss her just as much as you.
So my father and my son,
As you end what you've begun,
You'll lie patient by her side,
With roses red and lilies white.
I was too young to understand,
The flowers slipping from your hand,
I was too young to understand,
I was too young to understand.
I was too young to understand,
The flowers sleeping in your hand,
I was too young to understand,
I was too young to understand.
Oh please just don't cry,
Hold your head up high,
She would want you to,
She would want you to.
And just don't cry,
Hold your head up high,
She would want you to,
She would want you to.
