Chords for patrick jørgensen - hard to say goodbye (lyrics)

[Cm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Bb] Ohhhhhhh Ohhhhhh
I _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Ab] _
[Cm] don't think you understand the feeling that I get [Ab] inside
When I see a cursive handwriting
It's like you're still [Bb] alive
I laugh and then I smile a dick, so while before I sank
[Gm] It's like a part of you was still [Ab] among us
Sunk into the [Cm] ink, I write you on a sheet
Let my pen float like a [Ab] river
I catch my thoughts in passing, let it dry up on the [Bb] paper
Memories are fading
Since we no longer [Gm] communicate
That silent tree, these [Ab] torturous, was I the one who [Cm] tortured her?
Sorry for the times I locked the door
and shut you out, [Ab] left the house without a word,
I know this shit has kept you [Bb] up.
I woke up in the hospital and finally had [Gm] enough,
and that's about the time [Ab] I took to hear you out myself.
[Cm] I had a million questions pinching inside of my [Ab] skull,
inside of things you said that I invite you for a [Bb] talk.
Remember raising questions as to what your biggest dreams
[Gm] were, your reply included [Ab] me doing what I [Cm] dreamed for,
and that's about the time I packed my bags
and moved away [Ab] to go to college.
I acknowledged, got some knowledge on my [Bb] way,
and if it taught me something, it's that anything can [Gm] happen,
and any day can be the first, [Ab] and any day can be the [Cm] last,
any day can be the best, and any day can make you hurt.
[Ab] I've been putting in the hours, but it's
been worth it in the end, [Bb] because I'm hanging loose
but sitting tight.
Realized that I really [Gm] might have spent a few days [Ab] in silence
just to make it [Cm] overnight.
Hard to say goodbye when time flew us [Ab] by,
reaching for the stars, light in the sky.
[Bb] I can't reach far, so I keep you close.
[Gm] I try to hide it off, [Ab] but it often shows.
[Cm] Hard to say goodbye when time flew us [Ab] by,
reaching for the stars, light in the sky.
[Bb] I can't reach far, so I keep you close.
[Gm] Try to hide it off, [Ab] but it often shows.
[Cm] It's been a year now, and things are looking better.
[Ab] Since I had the time, I took the time to write a letter.
[Bb] And even though I can't stick a postage stamp,
I send [Gm] it.
I hope I sing this high enough for heaven gates to hear [Cm] it.
You see, what I've been trying to do is to make you proud.
[Ab] You're sorry you can't witness when I stand before the crowd.
[Bb] I'm sticking by the words, knowing damn well what I promised.
[Gm] You told me that I couldn't.
[Ab] I told you I would make it [Cm] through.
You said put in the hours, and the effort ain't for nothing.
[Ab] And now I love the sudden.
I'm in a competition.
[Bb] No doubt I'm feeling nervous, like I'm staring at a gun.
I [Gm] got nighties on my feet, but [Ab] it's too late for me to run.
[Cm] And if I were to run, my fate is all that I am running [Ab] from.
My fight is with myself.
I swim for chances as they come.
[Bb] But giving it my all, the girls that make me number one.
[Gm] May not have reached it yet.
[Ab] I'll write you when I'm done.
[Cm] Hard to say goodbye when time flew us by,
[Ab] reaching for the stars to the light in the sky.
[Bb] I can't reach far, so I'll keep you [Gm] close.
Trying to hide it off, [Ab] but it often shows.

[Ab] reaching for the stars to the light in the sky.
