                  G     A*
Why didn't you call?

                  D
My phone's always on

                  G     A*
Why didn't you call?

               D
Before you got gone

      G                            A*
And I can't say for certain what I would have said

    D                   G
But now I am helplessly silent instead

          G                             A*
There's a hole in my heart and in my head

                  D
Why didn't you call?

                  G          A*                         D
Why didn't you say something, on the last time we met?

                  G          A*                         D
Why didn't you say something? There's always hope left

      G                            A*
And I can't say for certain what I would have done

    D                   G
But I can't do anything now that you're gone

       G                           A*                      D
And it kills me to think that for a second you felt alone

            A                     Bm         D              G
Now you can measure the mark of a man on the day that he died

          A                     Bm           D          G
In the mixture of memory and wreckage that he leaves behind

      Em                              D/F#            G                             A
And I know you were carrying too much weight on the evening when you slipped away

      Bm               A                   G            A               D
But I loved you like a brother, man, and I never really had a chance to say

      G                   A7                       D
So at half past nine each evening, I'll think of my friend

       G                        A7                          D
And at half past nine, I'll remember you were better than your end

        G                         A7                           D                            G
Cause I too have stood up on that ledge, but I know you'd have pulled me back down from the edge

    G                      A7                   D
And I let you down in your darkness, I wasn't there

            G                 A7                             Bmsus2
So I'll remember you making a hole through the kids in the crowd

          G                   A7                Bmsus2
And I remember you lifting me up, each time I fell down

         G                             A7
And I'll glance at the barrier when I'm watching the band

           D                           G
And I'll expect to see you there stood on the foot stand

      Em           D/F#          G
But I guess I will see someone else

Em               D/F#          G
That's when I'll whisper to myself

A7                      D
Brother I miss you like hell...
