[Verse 1]
Am Dm
Why couldn’t god fill the world with
G C
A bunch of people and just leave it
Am Dm
Instead of everybody grieving
F/G C
Alone in their despair
Am Dm
What is the purpose of this hurting
G C
Why are the seasons always turning, turning
Am Dm
If love will always end for certain
F/G C
Then why’d he put it there
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am Dm
As long as I live I'm never gonna get it
F/G C
Why anyone has to go
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
This girl I knew made me better
G C
We’d fall asleep and touch our feet together
Am Dm
Now I’m just trying to forget her
F/G C
To keep me moving on
Am Dm
I should be happy that I knew her
G C
And not the fact I now mean nothing to her
Am Dm
It’s kinda crazy she’s a stranger
F/G C
And all her stuff is gone
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am Dm
As long as I live I'm never gonna get it
F/G C
Why anyone has to go
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Years gone by I still can't forget it
G C
Tears will fall and drown you if you let it
Am Dm
As long as I live I'm never gonna get it
F/G C
Why anyone has to go
