Chords:

Intro

Verse 1

I try to sleep, but my eyes are open

I can't think cause my heart is broken

And there's a bottle right next to me

I'll down a few drinks just to take the pain away

I wanna say all the things I need to say

I won't lie, I'll just tell them honestly

If God can take a friend away from me

Then I can say all I want and he won't do anything

Pre-chorus 1

My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak

 I can't say nothing at all

Chorus 1

Sleep well, my friend

 There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go

Sleep well, goodnight

 You're something to remember

 I wish that you were here by my side

Interlude

Verse 2

I spend hours tryna make it through the day

I don't know if I'll ever be the same

It's hard enough when you're all alone

In the city that you love, now Atlanta's just a burial ground

Pre-chorus 2

My tongue is weak and every time I try to speak

 I can't say nothing, nothing at all

It's hard to think when losing someone only make you wanna scream

 And now that you're gone

Chorus 2

Sleep well, my friend

 There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go

Sleep well, goodnight

 You're something to remember

 I wish that you were here by my side

Bridge

All the stained pieces, I can't believe this

 A mother shouldn't witness her son die at twenty-four

(Please don't know this is for the hopeless,

It's ripping me apart and I can't take it anymore)

I will hold my tongue for the rest of my life

 I can't keep this up anymore

Chorus 3

Sleep well, my friend

 There will be another moment we'll meet again, just let it go

Sleep well, goodnight

 You're something to remember

 I wish that you were here by my side

 By my side

 By my side

 By my side

Chorus 4

Sleep well, goodnight

 You're something to remember

 I wish that you were here by my side
