[C]

Verse 1

[C]You said you found a way to end it peacefully
I [C7]remember finding shoes near the lake under a tree

Saw your charm float [C]by
It [Am]doesn't matter now cos all you
Wanted to do was [C]die

Chorus

If [G]only you stuck [C]around[Bb]
I [G]never would've made a [C]sound[Bb]
But now[G] you're on the ocean floor and [C]I've [Bb]opened a
[C]Brand [C/B]new [Am]door
A [C]brand [C/B]new [Am]door

Verse 2

[C]Swimming out to sea, trying to find something else
While [C7]I'm skipping stones and I'm listening to the shells
And I [F]won't forget you if someone else comes [C]along

Bridge

I [Am]found the words you wrote
But I [F]would not dare to [Bb]quote
My [Am]friend, the [Dm]lines you [Am]amend
Like "what's so [G]bad about dying anyways?"[C]

Verse 3

[C]Swimming out to sea, trying to find something else
While [C7]I'm skipping stones and I'm listening to the shells

Whenever I hear that [C]song
