• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Intro:

D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm  (x2)


🎸 Verse 1:
      D MajorD      A augmentedA
They don't know where I was
      B minorBm         A augmentedA      G+G
They don't know and they can't say whether I should've given up
        D MajorD          A augmentedA
And they can't feel and they don't see
   B minorBm       A augmentedA          G+G
Only I can know how thin the walls have grown inside of me
    A augmentedA      G+G      A augmentedA
In the dark, on my own

🎸 Chorus:
  D MajorD   A augmentedA      B minorBm   A augmentedA
But in my dreams I was in your arms
    D MajorD    A augmentedA      B minorBm    A augmentedA
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
      D MajorD     A augmentedA     B minorBm    A augmentedA
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
   G+G         A augmentedA  D MajorD   A augmentedA   B minorBm
And I slept there for a lifetime

D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm


🎸 Verse 2:
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
I don't mind what they say
      B minorBm       A augmentedA          G+G
'Cause they all pretend to care 'til it's inconvenient to stay
    D MajorD           A augmentedA
And of course, we just smile morе
      B minorBm       A augmentedA        G+G
If I could help myself, I wouldn't be hеre stretched out on the floor
    A augmentedA      G+G      A augmentedA
And the day gets so long


🎸 Chorus:
  D MajorD   A augmentedA      B minorBm   A augmentedA
But in my dreams I was in your arms
    D MajorD    A augmentedA      B minorBm    A augmentedA
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
      D MajorD     A augmentedA     B minorBm    A augmentedA
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
   G+G         A augmentedA  D MajorD   A augmentedA   B minorBm
And I slept there for a lifetime

D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm

🎸 Bridge:
  B minorBm       A augmentedA      G+G      A augmentedA
I remember holding hands on the bank of the reservoir
    B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G        A augmentedA
And it saddens me to see how far that is from where we are
    B minorBm      A augmentedA       G+G       A augmentedA
And I'm sorry that I let it end and that it got to me
    G+G               A augmentedA
I just miss the way I see you when I sleep


🎸 Chorus:
  D MajorD   A augmentedA      B minorBm   A augmentedA
But in my dreams I was in your arms
    D MajorD    A augmentedA      B minorBm    A augmentedA
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
      D MajorD     A augmentedA     B minorBm    A augmentedA
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
   G+G       A augmentedA
And I loved you for dear life

  D MajorD   A augmentedA      B minorBm   A augmentedA
But in my dreams I was in your arms
    D MajorD    A augmentedA      B minorBm    A augmentedA
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
      D MajorD     A augmentedA     B minorBm    A augmentedA
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
   G+G         A augmentedA  D MajorD   A augmentedA  B minorBm
And I slept there for a lifetime
