🎸 Verse 1:
Gm  D            Gm    D
  I wish you knew  the person I am
E     G          E   G
  The way I hold  my heart in my hands
Gm    D         Gm              D
  The way I sing  like it's the air that I breathe
Gm       D         A
  People say it's everything

Gm  D            Gm         D
  I whistle still, crack my knuckles too
Bm      Gm                Bm              Gm
  Cause these are the two things you, you taught me to do
Gm     D                   Gbm
  They get on my mother's nerves, maybe cause I learned it from you
    Gm                   D              Asus4 A
  I hope one day there's more for me to choose
    Bb                             C
  Until that day I wish this to be true


🎸 Chorus:
       D
When I run
I'm running to your arms
           G
And when I sing
I'm singing to your heart
           G          D
I feel you near in my moments of fear
           Em         D             G
But when I open up my eyes I see it clear
     Em           D                 Gm
It's only in my dreams that you are here
           Gm  D    Gm D
You're not here


🎸 Verse 2:
Gm D           Gm  D
   Did you know  I dropped out of school
B/G                 G/B       A
  Nineteen years old   with a whole lot to prove
Gm        D
  Carried on through my doubts
Gbm
  All to figure out
Gm      D            Asus4 A
  Who I was meant to be

Gm D
   Ten years later
Gm       D
  Twenty-nine years old
Bm       D
  Got my poor heart broken
Bm       D
  Did it over the phone
Gm         D
  Was in a hotel room
Gbm
  And I was all alone
Gm D       Asus4 A
    I was alone


🎸 Chorus:
            D
I wanted to run, run into your arms
    G
And cry while you held me to your heart
         Gm         D
Feel you near in my moment of fear
      Em             D                G
But I opened up my eyes and wiped the tears
       Em         D                    Gm
It was only in my dreams that you were here


🎸 Bridge:
    Bm
And now you're missing out
         D                              E                           G
On how I get to live the life that I forever and a day had dreamed about
    Gb     Bm                                D
And it's a shame you won't be there for the joy I've yet to share
           E                                G
Because in spite of you I'm here oh yes I'm here
    A      Bm                                D
And I'm in love and it's for real and you'll never get to meet them
      E                             D   G
But I truly hope you're happy where you are
     Em              D            G
It's unfortunate we end before we start
           C                G
I hope you know I'll always love you from afar
      Gm
But I can't ignore the part


🎸 Chorus:
              D
That wants to run, run into your arms
    G
And sing until it pierces through your heart
         Bm         D
Feel you near in my moments of fear
  Em                D                    G
I know that it's a dream, and you're not here
    Em            D                       Gm
I'm holding onto dreams 'cause you're not here
             Gm     D
You'll never be here
