Verse 1:
[A] If I died to[E/G#]morrow would this song live on for[F#m]ever?
Here is [D]my[A]? unopened letter to [E/G#]a world
that never shall rep[F#m]ly, never [D]shall reply
Chorus 1:
[Bm] [D]
calling out my [A]name. This [E/G#]table is [F#m]set for one
Bm D Dm(hold)
Even angels would be homesick in this forsaken town
Verse 2:
[A] On random notes of [E/G#]parchment I'm scrawling my e[F#m]xistence
Dressed in [D]white, This [A]candle radiates throughout the [E/G#]night
And it's never burning [F#m]out, Never [D]burning out
Chorus 2:
[Bm] [D]
down on Main S[A]treet They're [E/G#]singing their [F#m]songs tonight
In the [Bm]shadows, I will listen to their [D]every movement
Bridge:
[F#m] Mr. Higgin[A]son, Am I not [D]good enough for the world?
Am I [F#m]destined only to [A]die the same way that [D]I lived...
in seclusion
Chorus 3:
[Bm] [D]
your lonely window[A]sill, They'll [E/G#]carry you [F#m]off tonight
There's a [Bm]ghost in your old bedroom
D Dm(hold)
And a candle burning bright
Outro:
A E/G# F#m(hold)
If I died tomorrow Would this song live on forever?
