This is a corrected version of my previous attempt at this song.
GmYou were once my Ebone companion
CmYou were all that Dmattered
GmYou were once a Fmfriend and father
Eb Then my Cmworld was Dshattered
GWishing you were somehow here again
Am/GWishing you were somehow D/Gnear
CSometimes it D/Cseemed Bm7if I just Emdreamed
Bm7Somehow you Emwould be Dhere
GWishing I could hear your voice again
Am/GKnowing that I never D/Gwould
CDreaming of D/Cyou won't Bm7help me to Emdo
Bm7 All that you Emdreamed I Dcould
GmPassing bells and Ebsculpted angels,
GmCold and monuDmental
GmSeem for you the Fmwrong companion,
You were Gmwarm and Dgentle
G G Am/G D
CToo many D/Cyears
Bm7Fighting back Emtears
Bm7 Why can't the Empast just Ddie!
EbWishing you were somehow here again

Knowing we must say goodbye
Eb F/Eb
Try to forgive
