Misc Your Songs - Kevin van arkel - 2011

^BmIt was many years ^Aago when we ^Gbrought you ^F#away. ^BmThe disease that you go^At, it ^Gwasn’t ^F#okay. ^BmWe didn’t speak ^Aabout it, ^Gbecause that is how we ^F#are. ^BmBut we were ^Acrying ^Gout of our ^F#hearts.

^BmI got bullied a^At school and my ^Ggrades, they were ^F#bad. ^BmI didn’t care a^About it because ^Gyou were in my ^F#head. ^BmThey thought I had some ^Ablackouts, at least ^Gthat is what they ^F#said. ^BmBut I just co^Auldn’t function with t^Ghe problems in my head^F#.

^BmI do not want to think ab^Aout it. I do n^Got want to speak it out.^{F# Bm}I don’t want to tell the t^Aruth to you because ^Gyou won’t stay ^F#around. ^BmI do not want to think ab^Aout it. I do n^Got want to speak it out. ^{F# Bm}I don’t want to tell the t^Aruth to you because ^Gyou won’t stay ^F#around. ^BmFor^A t^Gha^F#t long… ^BmFor^A t^Gha^F#t long…

^BmMy family w^Aas struggling ^Gand so was ^F#I. ^BmWe didn’t t^Aalk about it, al^Gl we did was fight^F#. ^BmWe only used words^A, ^Gjust to make ^F#clear. ^BmBut we knew that it h^Aurt you, when you st^Good up out that chair.^F#

^BmAnd you know tha^At I’m sorry but I real^Gly can’^F#t tell ^BmBecause that’s h^Aow we are, all our fee^Glings, ^F#they are shelled. ^BmAnd now I am cry^Aing, ^Gwriting this ^F#song. ^BmWhat is our purp^Aose, ^Gwhat did I do^F# wrong?

^BmI do not want to think ab^Aout it. I do n^Got want to speak it out.^{F# Bm}I don’t want to tell the t^Aruth to you because ^Gyou won’t stay ^F#around. ^BmI do not want to think ab^Aout it. I do n^Got want to speak it out. ^{F# Bm}I don’t want to tell the t^Aruth to you because ^Gyou won’t stay ^F#around. ^BmFor^A t^Gha^F#t long… ^BmFor^A t^Gha^F#t long…

^BmThe school problem^As continued and I felt rea^Glly depressed.^{F# Bm}I dropped out of c^Aollege and I ^Gdidn’t get much rest^F#. ^BmWhat is ^Ahe doing? And ^Gwhy is he gone^F#. ^BmThat where the ^Aquestions, but ^Gthey were the last^F#.

^BmThe last to ^Ahear about it. ^GThe last to get a text^F#. ^BmThe last that th^Aought about me. ^GAnd the last that did ^F#their best.
