[Verse 1]
Em
Picking up the pieces that you broke
Em
  The saddest morning when I woke
          Em
See, it's difficult to know the truth
The darkened path of being you
 Em
Alone, alone

[Verse 2]
Em
  The rain was coming down that day
Em
  The blackest sky to which I prayed
          Em
See, it's difficult to think
you're gone
Your life became the saddest song
 Em
Alone, alone

[Chorus]
C       D                Em
Life's emotions, sweet release
C       D               (Em)
Life's emotions, sweet release

[Verse 3]
Em
  We watch you walking out that door
Em
  Rewind a thousand times or more
          Em
See, it's difficult to see you there
Your broken heart, your hollow stare
 Em
Alone, alone

[Verse 4]
Em
  I heard the dogs that barked
  that night
Em
  The river shined in the moonlight
          Em
See, it's difficult to not feel blame
The world will never be the same
   Em
Oh no, I'm alone

[Chorus]
C       D                Em
Life's emotions, sweet release
C       D                Em
Life's emotions, sweet release
C       D             Em
Let the sun wash over me
C       D               (Em)
Life's emotions, sweet release
