♫ Verse 1:
D#D#
I wanted you to lead me
C minorCm
Like a dog to a fight
FF G#G#
But you got so much older overnight
D#D#
I wanted you to hold me
C minorCm
Like the snap of a snare
FF G#G#
But god, you gotta go and I'm not going there
D#D# C minorCm FF G#G#
D#D# C minorCm
You took the family car and you peeled out of view
FF G#G#
I hated you in the fleeting way that children often do
D#D# C minorCm
Would it have killed you then to tell me that you cared
FF G#G#
And would it have killed me then to tell you I was scared
♫ Chorus:
C minorCm G+G G#G# D#D#
I could drive all night and never see anything new
C minorCm G+G G#G# D#D#
I could take both my hands and wrap them around you
C minorCm G+G G#G# FF
But nothing could keep you here for me or me for you
D#D# C minorCm FF G#G#
♫ Verse 2:
D#D# C minorCm
The bad times took a year or two and then we’re splitting ways
FF G#G#
I wonder if they never left would we all have stayed
D#D# C minorCm
Would it have killed you then to tell me you were scared
FF G#G#
And would it have killed me then to tell you that I cared
♫ Chorus:
C minorCm G+G G#G# D#D#
I could drive all night and never see anything new
C minorCm G+G G#G# D#D#
I could take both my hands and wrap them around you
C minorCm G+G G#G# FF
But nothing could keep you here for me or me for you
D#D#
D#D# G#G#
I could mourn what waits for you like a flagpole in the distance
C minorCm G+G
But mines waving the same
G#G#
You know
D#D#
And your body moves and changes
G#G#
Regardless of my aching
C minorCm G+G
And mines changing the same
G#G#
I know
D#D# C minorCm
There's only so much love you can feel from a distance
FF G#G#
And time makes a fool of everyone who tries to change it
D#D# C minorCm
I’ll picture you in the living room Christmas morning full n fed
FF G#G#
You picture me in whatever light you like inside your head
