Tom: A
Intro: Em G D A (2x)
Em G
Did someone give you something
D A
To help you ease the pain?
Em G
Like the liquor in the bottle
D A
We watched you slip away
Em G
And I feel as if I know you
D A
Through the bars of a song
Em G D
Always surrounded but alone
Chorus:
C G
But no goodbyes
D Em
You'll always be Miss America
C G D Em
We watched you fly, but nothing's free Miss America
C G D Em
And as you fall apart, we just call it art
C G D
Was it so hard to breathe?
Em G D A
Was the picture in the paper not the face you recognise?
Em G
Did the make up never make up
D A
For the pain behind your eyes?
Em G
And I feel as if I know you
D A
When you're on my silver screen
Em G D
But I don't know the dark places that you've been
Chorus:
C G
But no goodbyes
D Em
You'll always be Miss America
C G D Em
We watched you fly, but nothing's free Miss America
C G D Em
And as you fall apart, we just call it art
C G D
Was it so hard to breathe?
Interlude:
C G9 G
Does another voice sing in heaven's choir tonight
Em D4 D
To fill the silence left behind?
C G9 G
And I don't know what goes on in your mind
Em D4 D
I'm sure it's enough to make me cry
C D
Someday we'll find you lived forever
Chorus:
C G
But no goodbyes
D Em
You'll always be Miss America
C G D Em
We watched you fly, but nothing's free Miss America
C G D Em
And as you fall apart, we just call it art
C G D
Was it so hard to breathe?
