Well, somewhere along the way it got heavy
    C majorC            A minorAm
Since I saw you from across the lawn,
       FF   G+G
Light as the day
      C majorC               A minorAm
You said, ”I told you what you wanted to hear”
   FF
Well, you might be right but I meant every
C majorC             A minorAm
Word I whispered into your ear,
               FF  G+G
Besides i didn’t mean to say

Pre-Chorus:
FF
Before I could go
C majorC
Completely alone
A minorAm
For days at a time
  FF      G+G
Without getting lonely
  FF
But I guess you left
 C majorC
A augmentedA hole in my chest
  A minorAm
You carved out a spot
    FF     G+G
And now I left it open

Chorus:
     FF  C majorC
It’s been too long
     A minorAm    FF
I need to hear your sweet voice again

Your sweet voice again

Verse 2:
   C majorC             A minorAm
Well, I hate it that I made you cry
       FF
You wear your heart on your sleeve and now you wanna use it
  C majorC             A minorAm
To wipe the tears out of your eyes
              FF   G+G
You’re getting salt in the wound
      C majorC           A minorAm
I wish you credit me for how hard I try!
   FF
’Cus someday you’ll find someone who loves you better, but
C majorC              A minorAm
First you gotta learn how to fly
    FF G+G
On your own

  FF    C majorC
Oh, you had too many glasses
  A minorAm             FF   G+G
You say you don’t remember that conversation
   FF           C majorC
But I think you know how the saying goes

About the words come out in that kinda state

I knew what I had to do

Your sweet voice again
