Verse 2
(C sharp minor7) I could curl (B/D#) up and (G sharp minor7) hide in my (Aadd9) room
(C sharp minor7) Here in my (B/D#) bed, still (G sharp minor7) sobbing to (Aadd9) morrow
(C sharp minor7) I could give in (B/D#) to (G sharp minor7) all of the (Aadd9) gloom
But (Badd4) tell me, (Aadd9) tell me what (Badd4) for
Pre-chorus 1
(F sharp minor7) Why should I have a heavy (C sharp minor7) heart?
(Aadd9) Why should I start to break in (Badd4) pieces?
(F sharp minor7) Why should I go and fall a (C sharp minor7) part for (Bsus4) you?
Chorus 1
(E major) Why should I play the grieving girl
and (Badd4) lie
Saying that I miss you
And that (C sharp minor7) my world has gone (Aadd9) dark
without your light? (Bsus4)
(F sharp minor7) I will (E/G#) sing no (F sharp/Bb) requiem (Asus2) tonight

(F sharp minor7) (C sharp minor7) (Aadd9) (B major)
Verse 3
We (C sharp minor7) gave you the world, (B/D#)
you (G sharp minor7) threw it away (Aadd9)
(C sharp minor7) Leaving these (B/D#) broken (G sharp minor7) pieces be (Aadd9) hind you
(C sharp minor7) Everything (B/D#) wasted, (G sharp minor7) nothing (Aadd9) to say
So (F sharp minor7) I can sing no (E/G#) requiem
Verse 4
I (C sharp minor7) hear your voice, (B/D#) I (G sharp minor7) feel you (Aadd9) near
Within (C sharp minor7) these words, (B/D#) I (G sharp minor7) finally (Aadd9) find you
And (C sharp minor7) now that I know (B/D#) that you (G sharp minor7) are still (F sharp/Bb) here
(Aadd9) I will sing no (Badd4) requiem tonight
Pre-chorus 2
(F sharp minor7) Why should I have a heavy (C sharp minor7) heart?
(Aadd9) Why should I I'll keep you (Badd4) with me?
(F sharp minor7) Why should I go and fall a (C sharp minor7) part for (Bsus4) you?
Chorus 2
(E major) Why should I play the grieving girl
and (Badd4) lie
Saying that I miss you
And that (C sharp minor7) my world has gone (Aadd9) dark
without your light? (Bsus4)
(F sharp minor7) I will (E/G#) sing no (F sharp/Bb) requiem (Asus2) tonight
Bridge 1
(Badd4) 'Cause when the (E/G#) villains (Aadd9) fall,
the kingdoms never (Badd4) weep
No one (E/G#) lights a candle (Aadd9) to remember
(Badd4) No, no one (E/G#) mourns at all (Aadd9)
When they lay them (C sharp minor7) down to (Badd4) sleep
So, (A/C#) don't (D major) tell me that I (A major) didn't have it (E major) right
Don't (D major) tell me that it (E/G#) wasn't black and (E major) white
After all (D major) you put me through (A/C#)
Don't (D major) say it wasn't true (A/C#)
That (F sharp7sus4) you were not the monster (F sharp7)
That I (Aadd9) knew
Chorus 3
'Cause (E major) I cannot play the grieving girl
and (Badd4) lie
Saying that I miss you
And that (C sharp minor7) my world has gone (Aadd9) dark
(Bsus4) (F sharp minor7) I will (E/G#) sing no (F sharp/Bb) requiem (Asus2)
(F sharp minor7) I will (E/G#) sing no (F sharp/Bb) requiem (Asus2)
(F sharp minor7) I will (E/G#) sing no (F sharp/Bb) requiem (Asus2) tonight
