[Intro]
G D Em D
Am G D

[Verse 1]
G    D                  Em
 Sometimes you look the same
D             Am             G        D
Just like you did before the accident
G            D            Em
 When you're staring into space
     D         Am                G
It's hard to believe you don't remember it
D
Woke up in the ambulance
    Em              D             C
You pieced it all together on the drive

[Chorus]
      G                Em             C
And I know you don't remember calling me
      G             Em                 C
But I told you even then,
 "You look so pretty"
     Em           G
In a hospital bed
    C              Em        Am
I remember you said you were scared
           Cm
And so was I

[Verse 2]
G      D                  Em
 And I stand still on the five
D                Am               G
Thought it was unusual, the early traffic
D
Usually I don't panic
G         D            Em
I just wanted to be on time
D              Am         G
When I saw the ambulances on the shoulder
  D
I didn't even think of pulling over
  Em              D                C
I pieced it all together late that night

[Bridge
           G
What if it happened to you
      B7
on a different day?
     Em
On a bridge where there wasn't
  B7
a rail in the way?
     G
Or a neighborhood street where
     B7
 the little kids play?
          Em
Where the angels are crusted
         B7
 in the snow or the rain
        G
What if you weren't alone,
            B7
 there were kids in car
          Em
Or if you were a mom,
        B7
 no one knows where you are
       G
If you changed anything,
           B7
 would you not have survived?
        Em
You're alive, you're alive,
         C
you're alive

[Chorus]
      G                Em             C
And I know you don't remember calling me
      G             Em
But I told you even then,
              C
"You look so pretty"
     Em           G
In a hospital bed
    C              Em        Am
I remember you said you were scared
Cm             G
   And so am I
