[Verse 1]
C
You live in letters sent with
shaky hands and circumstances
Em
I bet you never thought your
life could turn so tragic
C
A never ending summer in
the sand is not vacation
[Refrain 1]
Am C
I swear I saw my life flash
Em
before my eyes as the waves
D Am
came crashing down I saw
C
reflections of your face
Em
up in the sky as the shots
D
fired before you heard a sound
[Chorus 1]
C
What's it feel like to be alone?
Em
The one you love is across the ocean
D
You'll never know if he's coming home
C Em
The firefight dear it isn't over
[Verse 2]
C
You spend your nights drinking
alone waiting for phone calls
Em
I bet you never thought your
life could seem so long
C
I'd walk the ocean floor
so I could bring you home
[Refrain 2]
Am C
I swear I saw my life flash
Em
before my eyes as the waves
D Am
came crashing down I saw
C
reflections of your face
Em
up in the sky as the shots
D
fired before you heard a sound
[Chorus 2]
C
What's it feel like to be alone?
Em
The one you love is across the ocean
D
You'll never know if he's coming home
C Em
The firefight dear it isn't over
[Bridge] JT Woodruff Speaks
C
Sometimes life really isn't fair
D
And maybe I wished you far
Em
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
Em
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
C
Sometimes life really isn't fair
Bm
And maybe I wished you far
Em
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
Em
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
C
Sometimes life really isn't fair
Bm
And maybe I wished you far
Em
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
Em
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
[Refrain 3]
Am C
I swear I saw my life flash
Em
before my eyes as the waves
D
came crashing down
[Chorus 3]
C
What's it feel like to be alone?
Em
The one you love is across the ocean
D
You'll never know if he's coming home
C
The firefight dear it isn't over
[Chorus 4/Outro]
C
What's it feel like to be alone?
Em
The one you love is across the ocean
D
You'll never know if he's coming home
C Em
The firefight dear it isn't over
You live in letters sent with shaky hands and circumstances
I bet you never thought your life could turn so tragic
A never ending summer in the sand is not vacation
I swear I saw my life flash before my eyes
As the waves came crashing down
I saw reflections of your face up in the sky
As shots fired before you heard a sound
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear, it isn't over
You spend your nights drinking alone waiting for phone calls
I bet you never thought your life could seem so long
I walked the ocean floor so I could bring you home
I swear I saw my life flash before my eyes
As the waves came crashing down
I saw reflections of your face up in the sky
As shots fired before you heard a sound
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear, it isn't over
Sometimes life really isn't fair
Maybe I wished too far, far from here
But all I ever wanted was for you to care
All I ever wanted was to meet you there
[x3]
Sometimes life really isn't fair [x4]
I swear I saw my life flash before my eyes
As the waves came crashing down
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear, it isn't over
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear, it isn't over
