I got the letter back saying I can come and see [E] you.
I [C#m] really don't have time but promised that I'd come and see [A] you.
You're sitting far away [D] but do you know I sometimes [G#] need you.
I know that you deserve the time you got of all the [C#m] people.
I know you never bent, even in the strongest wind.
I really wish to every god that you were innocent.
[A] I'm happy and I'm [D] proud that I can still call you my [G#] friend.
I hope you read the letters and the [G#] magazines I [C#m] send.
You got your head up but I don't [G#m] have my hopes high.
I know [A] that you're a good man [D] and [G#] that's what brings a tear to my eye.
I'm [C#m] like, oh, I [E] hope you know you're not [B] that heavy.
And [A] there ain't no, [D]
[G#] no one can change it, no one can do it.
[C#m] I was 16 and we used to roll together.
You told me back then that I was meant for something [A] better.
You know in our life [D] nothing's gonna change but [G#] forever.
It seems it been forever since we really snuck [C#m] together.
I'm living a crazy life but wishing you could see it too.
See a thousand people sing my song from me to [A] you.
Every time I sing [D] it you know I'm pleading too.
[G#] Man I accept you as you are, no I don't need the [C#m] truth.
I got [E] my hopes high.
[B] See I know [A] you're a good man
[D] and it [G#] brings a tear to my eye.
And I'm [C#m] like, oh, I hope [B] you know you're not alone in that hell.
And there [A] ain't no,
[F#m] [G#] no one can change it, no one can do it better but [C#m] yourself.
I reminisce to back then when it was you and [E] I.
Smoking big, fat blunts, driving [C#m] movie night.
[A] They tried to get you [D] down but you refused to die.
[G#] They tried to give you angel wings but you refused to [C#m] fly.
You'd rather stay in hell and take your time in [G#m] jail.
They're only punishing us harder you ever [A] tell.
We both know
[D] nothing to each other.
[G#] But can you blame me for loving and missing my breath?
[C#m]
I hope [B] you know you're not alone in that hell.
And there [A] ain't no,
[D] [G#] no one can change it, no one can do it better but [C#m] yourself.
I hope [B] you know you're not alone in that hell.
And there [A] ain't no,
[F#m] no [G#] one can change it, no one can do it better but yourself.
