Front Porch Step - I Won't Say That I'm Okay

                [Intro]
G# C# G# C#
 
 
[Verse]
         G#
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     C#
I'm not okay without you here. 
                G#
I guess what's done is done. 
                               C#
I just feel so exposed without you near.
 
 
[Break]
A#m                                C#
   And I won't say that I'm okay, 
A#m
   'Cause you taught me not to lie, 
                                   C#   D#
So know that I'll miss you everyday.
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
            G#
You always taught me to be good, 
 
And always Do my best to be selfless
       C#
But I know that God is holding you 
 
And I Am so damn jealous,
         A#m
'Cause I miss your arms around me 
 
And the way you make me laugh.
         D#
Now I'm stuck inside this prison that says 
 
You're never coming back.
 
 
[Chorus]
         G#
So I'm sitting in my room 
 
As I try to write this song.
        C#
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough. 
 
It's just that everything seems wrong,
           A#m
And I keep bursting into tears 
 
Because the pain won't Go away,
             D#
Because the father took my best friend 
 
And said she cannot come out to play
         G#   C#   G#   C#
Anymore.
 
 
[Refrain]
         G#
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     C#
I'm not okay without you here.
         G#
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     C#
I'm not okay without you here.
         G#
I won't hold my tongue. 
                     C#
I'm not okay without you here.

I'm so sorry that it's not good enough. 
 
It's just that everything seems wrong,
           A#m
But I will try my best to be good
 
So I can pay my way,
           D#
Straight through the pearly gates 
 
Into your arms so we can play
      G#
Once more.
 
 
[Outro]
 
G#
Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart 
    C#
And uh, The only reason that isn't 
                                   G#
Stated in my life is because of you
 
And I really don't understand it God
 
That you introduced me to
 
What would take you away so fast
    C#
When you were the only person
 
That ever understood a thing I ever said
 
And I really don't understand
                              G#
How to deal with this anymore
 
And, I'm just really not okay with this
   C#
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
                              G#
But I don't want to be selfish 
 
I don't want you to be in heaven
 
I want you to be back down here
 
I don't want you to be there
                      C#
I want you to be here
 
What  supposed to Do now
G# C# G# C#  
                    That's all I'm asking
