F                 C
  And I saw it coming
          Em            Am
  I saw emptiness and tragedy
F                     C
  And I felt like running
   Em
So far away
                        F
Then knew I had to stay
                    C
And I know when I’m older
         Em               Am
I look back and I still feel the pain
F                   C           Em
  I know I’ll be stronger and I know I’ll be fine
                        C       Em     Am
For the rest of my days

[Chorus]
F                        C      Em     Am
   I’ve seen better days
        F          C      Em     Am
Put my face in my hands
      F      C          Em          Am
Down on my knees and I pray to God
        F          C           Em      Am     F
Hope he sees me through to the end

[Verse]
F             C
I notice most things
           Em             Am
But I didn’t notice the change
F                         C
  It was hot in the morning
           Em
Then it turned so cold
                           F
Towards the end of the day
                   C
There was no conversation
          Em               Am
I just felt like I was in space
F              C
  I needed my friends there
          Em
I just turned around
                              C      Em     Am
You were gone without a trace

[Chorus]
F                        C      Em     Am
   I’ve seen better days
        F          C      Em     Am
Put my face in my hands
      F      C          Em          Am
Down on my knees and I pray to God
        F          C           Em      Am
Hope he sees me through to the end

[Solo]
F    C    Em   Am
F    C    Em   F

[Verse]
                C
Now I have just started
       Em                Am
And I wandered on to the end
F                    C
  There’s nothing I have lost
        Em
That was once placed in the palm my my hands
F                  C
  And all of these hard times
       Em               Am
There fading around the bend
F                   C
  And now that I’m wiser
     Em                                 C      Em     Am
I cannot wait till I can help my friends

[Chorus]
F                        C      Em     Am
   I’ve seen better days
        F          C      Em     Am
Put my face in my hands
      F      C          Em          Am
Down on my knees and I pray to God
        F          C           Em      Am     F
Hope he sees me through to the end
F                        C      Em     Am
   I’ve seen better days
        F          C      Em     Am
Put my face in my hands
      F      C          Em          Am
Down on my knees and I pray to God
        F          C           Em      Am     F
Hope he sees me through to the end

[Outro]
F
Seen better
C        Em     Am       F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C        Em     Am       F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C        Em     Am       F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
C        Em     Am       F
Na       Na     Na Na Na Na Na
