G C Am Em G C Am Em


Verse 1:
G                               Em
Saw you at the market somewhere down on aisle 5
Am                                      C
Might have been someone who looked just like you from behind
         A7
I didn't care
Am                            G       C Em Am
Just went on pretending you were there

Verse 2:
G
Flew to Canada
         Em
Saw some mountains painted blue
Am                                    C
Jealous of the way they're the closer than I am to you
         A7
I said a prayer
Am                            C
Hoping that it made it's way up there


Chorus:
  Am                C
I like to think you hear me
    G        D/F#
Wherever you are
  Am                   C
I like to think you're near me
           G            D/F#
And you'll never be too far
Am              C                  G         G/B        Em
Every night without you feels like stumbling though the dark
          Am                        G         C Em Am G C Em A
Trying to find my way without my northern star


Verse 3:
     G
Last time I was in Nashville
Em               G
Maybe the time before
  Am                                 C
I woke up to a figure standing at my door
         A7
I wasn't scared
Am                            C
I just started talking to you there


Chorus:
  Am                C
I like to think you hear me
    G        D/F#
Wherever you are
  Am                   C
I like to think you're near me
           G            D/F#
And you'll never be too far
Am              C                  G         G/B        Em
Every night without you feels like stumbling though the dark
          Am                        G
Trying to find my way without my northern star
  C    G    D/F#
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
 Am    C    G  D/F#
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)


Outro:
Em
Just the thought of dying used to scare me half to death
    Am                            C
Now half of me is excited for the day I'll see you next
      A7
Until that time
Am
I'll just keep on talking to the sky
