Verse 1:
            E               C#m
Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
              B                        A
But it's the only thing that I know
              E                         C#m
When it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes
          B                                 A
It's the only thing that makes us feel alive


Pre-Chorus:
C#m                                  A
      We keep this love in a photograph
E                                    B
      We made these memories for ourselves
          C#m
Where our eyes are never closing
      A
Our hearts were never broken
      E                       B
And time's forever frozen, still


Chorus 1:
           E
So you can keep me
                           B
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
                           C#m
Holding me close until our eyes meet
                     A                          E
You won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home


Verse 2:
            E                C#m
Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
              B                        A
And it's the only thing that I know, no
                     E                                C#m
I swear it will get easier, remember that with every piece of ya
              B                                    A
And it's the only thing to take with us when we die, mmm


Pre-Chorus:
C#m                             A
    We keep this love in a photograph
E                                  B
    We made these memories for ourselves
          C#m
Where our eyes are never closing
     A
Our hearts were never broken
     E                        B
And time's forever frozen, still


Chorus 2:
            E
So you can keep me
                           B
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
                           C#m
Holding me close until our eyes meet
                     A
You won't ever be alone
            E
And if you hurt me, that's okay baby
      B
Only words bleed inside these pages
         C#m
You just hold me
                            A
And I won't ever let you go
                      C#m
Wait for me to come home
                      E
Wait for me to come home
                      A
Wait for me to come home
                      B
Wait for me to come home


Bridge:
           E
Oh you can fit me
                                           B
Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen
                                C#m
Next to your heartbeat where I should be
                           A
Keep it deep within your soul
            E
And if you hurt me, that's okay baby
      B
Only words bleed inside these pages
         C#m
You just hold me
                         A
And I won't ever let you go


//Switch back to palm mute

Outro:
           E                            B
When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me
                            C#m
Under the lamppost back on Sixth street
                                  A
Hearing you whisper through the phone

Wait for me to come home
