I Won't Say That I'm Okay

• G

Capo 1




Intro: G C G C  

Verse: 
         G 
I won't hold my tongue.  
                     C 
I'm not okay without you here.  
                G 
I guess what's done is done.  
                               C 
I just feel so exposed without you near. 

BREAK: 
Am                                C 
   And I won't say that I'm okay,  
Am 
   'Cause you taught me not to lie,  
                                   C   D 
So know that I'll miss you everyday. 


Pre-Chorus 
            G 
You always taught me to be good,  

And always do my best to be selfless  
       C 
But I know that God is holding you  

And I am so damn jealous,  
         Am 
'Cause I miss your arms around me  

And the way you make me laugh.  
         D 
Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says  

You're never coming back.  


 
         G 
So I'm sitting in my room  

As I try to write this song.  
        C 
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.  

It's just that everything seems wrong, 
           Am 
And I keep bursting into tears  

Because the pain won't go away,  
             D 
Because the father took my best friend  

And said she cannot come out to play 
         G   C   G   C 
Anymore. 


REFRAIN: 
         G 
I won't hold my tongue.  
                     C 
I'm not okay without you here. 
         G 
I won't hold my tongue.  
                     C 
I'm not okay without you here. 
         G 
I won't hold my tongue.  
                     C 
I'm not okay without you here. 


Verse: 
                G 
I guess what's done is done.  
                               C 
I just feel so exposed without you near. 


BREAK: 

Am                                C 
   And I won't say that I'm okay,  
Am 
   'Cause you taught me not to lie,  
                                    C   D 
So know that I'll miss you everyday. 


Pre-Chorus 
            G

And always do my best to be selfless  
       C

             G 
And now I'm sitting in my room  

As I try to write this song.  
        C 
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.  

It's just that everything seems wrong, 
           Am 
But I will try my best to be good 

So I can pay my way,  
           D 
Straight through the pearly gates  
           
Into your arms so we can play 
      G 
Once more. 


SPOKEN OUTRO: (play Ab, Db over and over until end) 

G 
Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart  
    C 
And uh, The only reason that isn't  
                                   G 
Stated in my life is because of you 

And I really don't understand it God 

That you introduced me to  
                                 
What would take you away so fast 
    C 
When you were the only person 

That ever understood a thing I ever said 

And I really don't understand  
                              G 
How to deal with this anymore 
    
And, I'm just really not okay with this 
   C 
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven 
                              G 
But I don't want to be selfish  

I don't want you to be in heaven 

I want you to be back down here 

I don't want you to be there 
                      C 
I want you to be here 

What am I supposed to do now 
                      G C G C  fade out... 
That's all I'm asking
