Standard (EADGBE)
In a book, in a box, in the closet
In a line in a song I once heard
In a moment on a front porch late one June
In a breath inside a whisper, beneath the moon
There it was at the tip of my fingers
There it was on the tip of my tongue
There you were and I had never been that far
There it was; the whole world wrapped inside my arms
And I let it all slip away
Chorus
What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
B F# G#min F# 2x then to the verse.
VERSE 2!
Theres a rain that will never stop fallin
Theres a wall that I tried to take down
What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips
So I held back and now we've come to this
And it's too late now
CHORUS!
What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
Instrumental
repeat 2 times
I should have found a way to to tell you how I felt
Now the only one I'm telling is myself
CHORUS!
What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains(silence that remains)
Are the words I couldn't say
What do I do
what do I say
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
