[VERSE 1]
Db Ab
I'll quote a clever line like "hope"
Bbm
I'll take the final words you wrote
Ab
To make them feel like bliss...
Db Ab
As always as I'll take the praise
Bbm
I have a way with making things
Ab Gb Ab n.c.
Scripted like a song that makes you sting
[CHORUS 1]
Db
I need you here with me,
Ab
so here's a heart to heart
Bbm Gb
on the back of postcards sent from California
Db
Remember when I said
Ab
just stay what you are
Bbm Gb
I know you hate the feeling when I walk away
Db
When I'm without you,
Ab Gb
I'm not the man that I know I can be
Ab Db
Because you're not here with me

Db n.c. Ab
You can break my heart open
Bbm
And ruin my epic end - ing

Your hand like a noose around my neck

But the next time you say "Promise me"
Bbm Ab Gb
I'll make one for myself to always stay
Ab
(what I am...)
