Verse:
Cadd9              G6/B
 I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
C                 Em
 Feel so far from where I've been
Cadd9                G6/B
 Got my eggs, and my pancakes too
C                     D
 Got the maple syrup, everything but you
Cadd9                          G6/B
 I break the yolks, and make a smiley face
C                      Em
 I kinda like it in my brand new place
           Cadd9                                    G6/B
I Wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave the keys in the door
C                            D
 Never put wet towels on the floor anymore, 'cause..

Chorus:
C           D
Dreams last so long
G6/B Gsus2/F#     Em
Even after you're gone
C           D
I know that you love me
G6/B     Gsus2/F# Em
And soon you will see
         C
You were meant for me
    D               Em
And I was meant for.. you

Verse:

I called my mama, she was out for a walk
C                             Em
Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk
     Cadd9                     G6/B
So I Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
     C                       D
More hearts being broken, or people being used
Cadd9                 G6/B
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
C                     Em
 Saw a movie, it just wasn't the same
Cadd9         G6/B
 It was happy, I was sad
C                    D
 It made me miss you oh so bad, 'cause..

I go 'bout my business, I'm doin' fine
         Bm                D          Csus2  Csus2/B
Besides, what'd I say if I had you on the line
Am7                      D

      Cadd9               G6/B
So, I pick a book up, and turn the sheets down
    C                         D
And take a deep breath, and a good look around
Cadd9                G6/B
 Put on my pj's, and hop into bed
C                          Em
I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead but
  Cadd9                     G6/B
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
  C                       D
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight, 'cause..
