Verse 1:
C                          Am
Wasn’t this supposed to be fun?
      F
Well, somewhere along the way it got heavy
        C                       Am
Since I saw you from across the lawn,
             F     G
Light as the day
           C                             Am
You said, ”I told you what you wanted to hear”
      F
Well, you might be right but I meant every
C                          Am
Word I whispered into your ear,
                              F    G
Besides i didn’t mean to say

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

Chorus:
          F   C
It’s been too long
          Am        F
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Am               G7
Your sweet voice again
          F   C
It’s been too long
          Am        F
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Am               G7
Your sweet voice again

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

Pre-Chorus:
    F       C
Oh, you had too many glasses
    Am                          F     G
You say you don’t remember that conversation
      F                      C
But I think you know how the saying goes
          Am                     F     G
About the words come out in that kinda state

Bridge:
         Am    G
You said “stay”
     F
So I stayed quiet
    Am         G
For once in my life
  F                  G G7
I knew what I had to do

Chorus:
          F   C
It’s been too long
          Am        F
I need to hear your sweet voice again
     Am             G7
Your sweet voice again
          F   C
It’s been too long
          Am        F
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Am               G7
Your sweet voice again
