  You came from down south,   words in your mouth,
F                              F
  you had your tricks and your needs.
Dm                        Dm
  Bounce up and stronger,   lasted longer,
   G                        G
it came between you and me.
C                           E
  You headed straight down,   nothing to hide now,
Am                         F
  dancin' to your master's tune.
        F                         F
I could see in your eyes you were   ready to die,
        C                      C
tell me what was I supposed to do.

             Dm      Dm              G         G
The curtains   rise,   the show goes on,

wish you were here,   I know that you're gone.

  World in your hands,   so many plans,
F                        F
all of them ahead on the road.
        Dm                           Dm
We were drinking in the parking lot,   singing with the strangers,
    G                 G
too happy to feel the cold.
       C                      E
When I stand on the stage you know you're standing next to me,
Am                        F
  you're right here by my side.
F                F
  Singing along,   sick of my song
       C                        C
that I know you heard a hundred times.

Down in deep water Windham County's daughter
F                         F
bever get to look in your eyes,
Dm                 Dm
  it just happened   like thunder clapping,
G                         G
leaving us to wonder why.
         C                 E
Into the arms of the river   you were delivered,
Am            F
only 24 years old,
F                          F
  don't tell me everything happens for a reason,
C                      N.C.
  that line is getting old.
