Verse:
D A
She was diagnosed on a Friday,
G
The kids were almost home,
E G D
The kids were on their way back home from school,
A
Lying face down in the gutter,
G
Of unaccomplished dreams,
E G D
And broken memories of things to come.
A
"Sorry ma'am, I really am. I had to break the news.
G E G
I had to make the phone call to tell you that you're due,
D A
You know where, I'll tell you when,
G E
And I suggest you start living these next three weeks,
G
The best way that you can."
Chorus
D A G
Every night for three long weeks,
E D
She’d roam the hallways half asleep,
A
And as the footsteps fade away,
G E
In my mind, I could swear, I could swear, I heard her say:
G A D E G
Don't wait for me, you’ve got a lot to do, you’ve got a lot to be,
A
And in the end maybe, I'll see you there.

Verse 2
D A
Lost strength on a Saturday,
G
Spent the day in bed
E G D A
"yeah, I'm fine. it's just the flu", she said with a smile
G E G
But when they turned their backs, the tears would flow
D
She knew she only had a while
A
To live (to breath)
G
To be (to see)
E G
To bleed, to stand
D
On her own two weakened feet
A G
And so I pray everyday
E G
"Don't take my moher away"-
Chorus
D A G E G
