Verse 1:

C                  F                       C  F
  It’s a long way home, but I’m making my way
C                F                    C  F
  With so many things still left to say
C                  F
  I try to think about the one I need the most
Am         F
  When my mind goes black
C             F
  And then it hits me like a ton of bricks
Am           F
  I want you, no, nothing else
Am          Am/B
  I want to lock you up inside my heart
