You should know I could never hold your photo
G C
it trembled in my hand and I had to let it go
Am D
And the people came and the people went
G C
And the cards and the flowers and the food was sent
Am
I saw your mom
D
I saw your dad
G
I saw your sisters
C
Your brothers and the house you had
Am D
And it's strange to be with a family
Who keeps saying:
G C
"Say something 'fore the food goes bad,"
What are we to make
G
What are we to make of this?
C
We are just adults
G C
And you were just a little crazy kid
Am D
The living room lights were dim
G C
I saw you in your brother when I looked at him
Am D
And it brought back painful memories
G C
Of the pool and the fool on piano keys
Am D
And I had no idea how to be myself
G C
I've forgotten what it's like to think of someone else
Am D
And it's strange to be a with a family who keeps saying:
G C
"Only I see how you look in at me,"
What are we to make
G
What are we to make of this?
C
We are just adults
G C
And you were just a little crazy kid
Am D
We drove home long after the sky grew dark
G C
We sat alone a little while after the car was parked
Am D
We felt the luckiest of our entire lives, husbands said
G C
"I love you" that night when they kissed their wives
Am D
'Cause it's the greatest relief when it isn't your own kid
G C
But it's the greatest grief when it is
Am D
And it's the greatest sorrow losing what you love
G C
But what's worst is wondering why you did
What are we to make
G
What are we to make of this?
C
We are just adults
G C
And you were just a little crazy kid
What are we to make
G
What are we to make of this?
C
We are just adults
G C Am
And you are just water under the bridge
