Camp Cope - Song For Charlie

      [Intro] (x4)
G D Cadd9

[Verse 1]
G                 D          Cadd9
When I asked what closure felt like
G                      D     Cadd9
No one could give me a solid answer
G              D          Cadd9
When we turned around the corner
G                D    Cadd9
I felt my entire body shake
Em7               G        Cadd9
I swear it didn’t look like him
Em7              G                  Cadd9
Those hands were dirty and that was comforting
D            Em7            Cadd9
And when she said don’t be afraid, for the last time I touched his face

[Verse 2]
G D Cadd9 (x2)
G                D      Cadd9
And I drove over Sunday morning
G                D               Cadd9
I couldn’t stop shaking the whole way
G                   D       Cadd9
And she walked over to the thermostat
G                  D         Cadd9
Said the house needed to be warm today
Em7        G            Cadd9
And we all sat there in silence
Em7        G            Cadd9
Listening to our mother cry
D             Em7     Cadd9
And I felt it when it hit, I feel everything

[Verse 3]
G D Cadd9 (x2)
G                 D               Cadd9
And I heard you practicing in the shower
G                      D      Cadd9
All the things you were gonna say
G                    D        Cadd9
Though I didn’t hear specific words
G                    D       Cadd9
Boy, I tell you, you sounded brave
Em7           G              Cadd9
You were that little bit too late
Em7                    G           Cadd9
Probably wouldn’t have changed him anyway
D                    Em7      Cadd9
But if I said that I felt the same, would it feel okay?

[Verse 4]
G D Cadd9 (x2)
G              D           Cadd9
And I keep his photo in my wallet
G                  D      Cadd9
Yeah, I watch home videos sometimes
G                  D          Cadd9
To hear his voice and see him smile
G           D            Cadd9
To heal the impact on my life
Em7               G              Cadd9
Still hoping I’ll see him on the street
Em7       G              Cadd9                         D
Or in the house he built around me, my sisters, and my brother
D        C                               G
For the strongest woman I’ve ever known, my mother

[Verse 5]
G D Cadd9 (x2)
Em7            G           Cadd9
And I keep his photo in my room
Em7               G        Cadd9
And how he looked so much like you
G                     D  Cadd9
Charlie, you’re gonna be okay
G                     D   Cadd9
At least tomorrow, if not today
G                     D  Cadd9
And Charlie, I’m gonna be okay
G                   D     Cadd9
And there is no one we can blame
G                     D  Cadd9
Charlie, you’re gonna be okay
G                     D  Cadd9
At least tomorrow, if not today
G                       D  Cadd9
Keep playing your songs everyday
G                     D  Cadd9
Oh, and when you’re not okay
                G  D  Cadd9
You can always call
                     G D  Cadd9
And it was no one’s fault

[Outro]
