Intro: Am F C
(Verse 1)
AmFC
Brother, why'd you have to go?
AmFC
You left us so soon
AmFCG
Remember that song I wrote about your family years ago?
AmFC
Well, they're waiting for you to come home
AmFCG
What do I do, what do I say when dad tells me to pray
AmFCG
So I prayed and prayed that the hurt won't go away
AmFC
The pain gets worse, it never stops
G
And I've asked the Lord for us to swap
AmFC
I begged him plea cuz you have kids to feed
(Chorus)
AmFCG
Why is it always stormy weather?
AmFCG
And brother, tell me if it all gets better?
AmF
Why did you leave? Why did you die?
CG
You finally made your brother cry
AmFCG
I know you're watching over us tonight
AmFC
And I hope you're watching over us tonight
(Verse 2)
AmFC
I'm sorry I missed your call
AmFC
I wasn't there for you at all
AmFCG
And now I thought it through, maybe if I answered you
AmFC
You would still be here all alone
AmFCG
Now no more calls, can't you see? I took for granted family
AmFCG
And once they're gone, you'll never get that back
AmFC
No more laughs, no more hugs
G
So hold on to the ones you love
AmFC
Your soul is free, I love you, Anthony!
(Chorus)
AmFCG
Why is it always stormy weather?
AmFCG
And brother, tell me if it all gets better?
AmF
Why did you leave? Why did you die?
CG
You finally made your brother cry
AmFCG
I know you're watching over us tonight
AmFC
And I hope you're watching over us tonight
