Capo 4
Intro: Am C F G } 2x
[Verse 1]
Am G C F
Why should I play this game of pretend?
Am G C F
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?
Am G C F
Such a great son and wonderful friend
G C F
Oh, don't the tears just pour
[Verse 2]
Am G C F
I could curl up and hide in my room
Am G C F
There in my bed, still sobbing tomorrow
Am G C F
I could give in to all of the gloom
G
But tell me, tell me what for
[Pre-chorus]
Dm
Why should I have a heavy heart?
F
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Dm G
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
[Chorus]
C
Why should I play the grieving girl and
G
lie, saying that I miss you
Am F G
And that my world has gone dark without your light?
Dm C F Am
I will sing no requiem tonight
[Instrumental]
Am C F G } 2x
[Verse 3]
Am G Em F
I gave you the world, you threw it away
Am G Em F
Leaving these broken pieces behind you
Am G Em F
Everything wasted, nothing to say
Dm G
So I can sing no requiem
[Verse 4]
Am G Em F
I hear your voice, I feel you near
Am G Em F
Within these words, I finally find you
Am G Em F
And now that I know that you are still here
F G
I will sing no requiem tonight
[Pre-chorus]
Dm
Why should I have a heavy heart?
F G
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Dm C G
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
[Chorus]
C
Why should I play the grieving girl and
G
lie, saying that I miss you
Am F G
And that my world has gone dark without your light?
Dm C F
I will sing no requiem
G
Tonight
[Bridge]
F G
'Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep
F G
No one lights a candle to remember
F
No, no one mourns at all
G
When they lay them down to sleep
A# F C
So, don't tell me that I didn't have it right
A# F C
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
A# F
After all you've put me through
A# F
Don't say it wasn't true
Dm
That you were not the monster
F
That I knew
[Chorus] *single strums or picking*
C
'Cause I cannot play the grieving girl and
G
lie, saying that I miss you
Am F C G
And that my world has gone dark
[Coda]
Dm Am F
I will sing no requiem...
Dm Am F
I will sing no requiem...
Dm Am F
I will sing no requiem...
Am
Tonight.
C F
Oh-oh...
G Am
oh-oh...
C F
Oh-oh...
G Am
Oh-ohhh...
