Verse 1:

   G+G       C majorC   G+G
On my shoulder as we laid awake
    C majorC    G+G    D MajorD  BB  E minorEm
And you always loved a smoke by eight
    BB      C majorC
'Cause baby don't mind


      G+G          C majorC     G+G
Gets never colder than when the daylight breaks
    C majorC    G+G    D MajorD BB  E minorEm
Do you now regret the bed we made?
    BB      C majorC
Does it cross your mind?
   G+G       C majorC     G+G
Well baby, does it cross your mind?

Chorus:

   C majorC   E minorEm   BB    C majorC   E minorEm
I did not intend to slow you down, mm
   D MajorD     D/AD/A     FF    C majorC
Even hoped that we would've spoke by now
   G+G        D MajorD  G+G
I was acting like an only child

Verse 2:

   G+G         C majorC   G+G
What takes forever is a lesson learned
    C majorC     G+G      D MajorD  BB   E minorEm
I have nothing to show for the medals I've earned
  BB    C majorC
And maybe I mind
    G+G           C majorC     G+G
'Cause no one's ever seen me traipsing in
      C majorC      G+G    D MajorD   BB  E minorEm
I've been hiding from all the places I've been
   BB      C majorC
And sore from trying
   G+G       C majorC    G+G
And acting like an only child

Chorus:

   C majorC   E minorEm   BB    C majorC   E minorEm
I did not intend to slow you down, mm
   D MajorD     D/AD/A       FF    C majorC
Even though I'd hoped we'd have spoke by now
G+G       D MajorD  G+G
Maybe we were only lying

Verse 3:

C majorC    G+G           C majorC      G+G
Heaven's closing, they're still pouring drinks
    C majorC     G+G  D MajorD   BB  E minorEm
And of all those crazy ways you think
  BB    C majorC
I love you lying
  G+G            D MajorD  BB  E minorEm
But I can't reason with the past we face
   D MajorD   G+G    D MajorD  BB  E minorEm
I'm sorry for the mess we made
      C majorC      G+G      BB   E minorEm
And if you want, we'll pick through my mistakes
    BB   C majorC
You'll see me crying
   G+G
But maybe we could put it all behind

Chorus:

   C majorC   E minorEm    BB     C majorC   E minorEm
I did not intend to force your hand, ooo
   D MajorD    D/AD/A    FF   C majorC
Even though we swore we'd understand
G+G         BB  E minorEm
Maybe we'll be always trying

Outro:

     G+G
We'll be always trying
