Things You Left Behind

Em C G D

[Verse 1]
Em                              C
These are the things you left behind
G                                       D
An old record player, half a bottle of wine
Em                                 C
Some pictures of days gone by to remind
G                    D
Of the joy in your smile
Em                                C
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some time
G                                                 D
If you're ever around, would you please give me a sign
Em                                            C
And I'll look after your things like they were mine
G                             D
All of the things you left behind

Em C G D

[Verse 2]
Em                                         C
Picking up the pieces of an impossible puzzle
G                                            D
Sealed all the secrets, the signs were so subtle
Em                                            C
Maybe you were too shy or your pride was too high
G                                                 D
Or you'd lie and deny to try and hide all your trouble
Em                                            C
Now only questions remain with no easy answers
G                              D
 the pain, the harm you hear after
Em                                            C
The pressure and the strain every day you had to
G                                          D
have sustained maybe made you feel in a way there were no second chances

[PreChorus]
Em                              C
I wish you would have opened up
G                     D
Opened up just enough
Em                         C
Just enough to see how much
G                      D
How much you were truly loved

[Chorus]
Em                             C
I wish you would have opened up
G                      D
Opened up just enough
Em                              C
Just enough to see how much you were truly loved
Em                C
These are the things you left behind
Em                              C
Some pictures of days gone by to remind
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
Of the joy in your smile
G                             D
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some time
Em                              C
If you're ever around, would you please give me a sign
G                             D
And I'll look after your things like they were mine
Em                              C
All of the things you left behind

[Verse 3]
Em                              C
I still hear an echo of your voice in your laughter
G                             D
And I do still remember the moments you captured
Em                              C
Flame you spark lit up the dark and burned brighter and faster
G                             D
The story ain't over, we've just closed the chapter
Em                              C
Now forever after the whole world is inspired
G                             D
A billion little candles with light from your fire
Em                              C
Shining like the stars where you're up
G                             D
I hope that you can see now how much you were loved

[Chorus]
Em                              C
These are the things you left behind
G                             D
An old record player, half a bottle of wine
Em                              C
Some pictures of days gone by to remind
G                  D
Of the joy in your smile
Em                              C
Oh, I'll be fine, just need some time
G                             D
If you're ever around, would you please give me a sign
Em                              C
And I'll look after your things like they were mine
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
All of the things you left behind
G                             D
All of the things you left behind
Em                              C
So many things, so many things, so many things you left behind
G                             D
I'm one of the things you left behind
