[INTRO] E B G#m B [VERSE 1]
E 
 Small town, just north of the city, 

           B                     G#m       B
 There's a girl all alone by the window in need and she,

E
 She's thinking that this worlds too much to take

B             G#m      B
 It could use one less heart to break

E
 She stares down at the world below

 B                                    G#m      B
 Fools herself to thinking she should just let go, I know

E                               B     G#m  B
 I wish she knew she wasn't so alone
[PRE-CHORUS]
     F#
 She left us a letter to outline the facts

         E
 How she felt so alone like the world turned their backs

     F#
 Her parents don't notice she's slipping away

       E
 She'd still be around if she just heard them say
[CHORUS]
          E                              B      G#m B
 It's the ups and downs of living life this way

 E                           B   G#m B
 Promise me you'll never go away

      E
 Just stay with me through one more night

               B               G#m      B
 Because it's always darkest before the light

           E                            B   G#m B
 And now I promise you I'll never turn away
E B* I won't let you give us one less heart to break [VERSE 2]
E
 Flash back to early that year

             B                                   G#m        B
 Between his home life and school he wished he'd just disappear, I know

E                                           B
 He's thinking that this worlds too much to take

              G#m      B
 It could use one less heart to break

E     
 Whole world coming down on his back

            B                             G#m           B
 He takes a bottle of pills and then he's finished with that, I know

E                             B     G#m  B
 I wish he knew he wasn't so alone
[PRE-CHORUS]
    F#
 He left us a letter to outline the facts

        E
 How he felt so alone like the world turned their backs

     F#
 His parents don't notice he's slipping away

      E
 He'd still be around if he just heard them say
[CHORUS]
          E                              B      G#m B
 It's the ups and downs of living life this way

 E                           B   G#m B
 Promise me you'll never go away

      E
 Just stay with me through one more night

               B               G#m      B
 Because it's always darkest before the light

           E                            B   G#m B
 And now I promise you I'll never turn away

E                                          B     G#m B
 I won't let you give us one less heart to break
E B G#m B [CHORUS]

 It's the ups and downs of living life this way

 E                           B   G#m B
 Promise me you'll never go away

      E
 Just stay with me through one more night

               B               G#m      B
 Because it's always darkest before the light

           E                            B   G#m B
 And now I promise you I'll never turn away

E                                          B
 I won't let you give us one less heart to break
