[Verse]
E 
I didn’t know that he got in a car crash 
Abm
We could have been friends, could have got married 
A
Could have had grandkids, sent them to college 
Abm
Or at least attended each other’s weddings. 

E
I didn’t know that you stayed home for hours 
Abm
Calling his parents asking for answers 
A
Skipping your prom night, crying and praying 
Abm
Up to a God that you never believed in. 

[Chorus]
E
Meghan held your body 
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party 
A
And I couldn’t leave the kitchen 
Abm
I ingested too much poison 

[Verse]
E
I wanted to tell you I know how it feels when 
Abm
The people you love just start disappearing 
A
Ashamed that you took their presence for granted 
Abm
But I didn’t want to seem condescending 

E
I didn’t know that you’d relive the moment 
Abm
The doctor came out with a frown and a clipboard 
A
And you wandered home with no ride feeling stupid 
Abm
That you thought that this was a regular visit 

[Chorus]
E
Meghan held your body 
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party 
A
And I couldn’t help from staring 
Abm
And creating extra tension  
E
Meghan held your body 
Abm
While you were sobbing at the party 
A
And I couldn’t leave the kitchen 
Abm
I ingested too much poison

[Bridge]
Dbm
Were you supposed to not go to college? 
A
Stay in your mom’s house on the computer 
Abm
Googling grief cures, talking to no one 
B
Waiting for life to start feeling better
A 
Waiting for pain to not be a constant
B
Waiting to feel like anyone’s honest
Dbm
Waiting for me to stop being sarcastic 
F#m
Because I can’t accept (because I can’t accept) 
Because I can’t accept all the bad things that happen

[Chorus]
E
Oh, I swear I’m sorry 
Abm
That I saw you at the party 
A
That I stood there saying nothing 
Abm
While you wept before your new friends 
Dbm
Oh, I’m serious, I’m sorry 
A
Oh, I’m serious, I’m sorry
