I wish that you were here to celebrate together
Am7 D11
I wish that we could spend the holidays together
G D/F#
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
Em Bm7
With the Teddy Bear you gave me that I held so tight
C
I thought you were so strong
G/B
You'd make it through whatever
Am7 D11 G
It’s so hard to accept the fact you’re gone forever
(Chorus)
