A good buddy of mine wrote this tune. I think the guitar part is very cool. You
can the tune from iTunes or CDbaby.com
Cheers and have fun!

Intro played throughout verses
I was at your funeral just the other day.
All choked with tears, we knew youd gone away.
And up at the front I heard the man say
That the stars shine the brightest when the daylight goes away
Intro
You left us puzzled inside my friend
I respect your choice for the misery to end
Its not easy to understand your pain
But now your tears of anguish are falling down like rain
CHORUS:
Now we sit around, try to figure out, what else
What else we might have done to keep you around
Telephone call, note in the mail
Finally realized that you were on your own
(strummed like the intro)
You were on your own.
I dont believe in the after life
But if by some chance its true
I know you will be there helping
Helping those right in front of you
And is it selfish for me to say
That I really miss your smile
Know where now it was hiding
Hiding your darkness all the while
Chorus
Some days I just dont wanna be
A student of life after all
Some of lifes lessons we are forced to learn
I could really do without them all
Now it time for me to reassure through this song
To all of us who love you
The silver lining of this cloud
Will win out, will win out, will win out
