πΈ Chorus:
Cadd9 G D
I wish I could fly
Cadd9 Em7 D
I'd pick you up and we'd go back in time
Cadd9 G D
I'd write this in the sky
Cadd9 Em7 D
I miss you like it was the very first night
πΈ Verse:
Cadd9
And so it goes, every week in the same party
A7sus4 D
I never go alone, and I don't seem broken-hearted
Em7 D
My friends all say they know, everything I'm going through
Cadd9
I drive down different roads, but they all lead back to you
πΈ Pre-Chorus:
Am C
'Cause they don't know about the night in the hotel
G D
They were riding in the car when we both fell
Am C
Didn't read the note on the polaroid picture
G D
They don't know how much I miss you
πΈ Chorus:
Cadd9 G D
I wish I could fly
Cadd9 Em7 D
I'd pick you up and we'd go back in time

I'd write this in the sky
Cadd9 Em7 D
I miss you like it was the very first night
πΈ Verse:
Cadd9
And so it was, we never saw it coming
A7sus4 D
Not trying to fall in love, but we did like children running
Em7 D
Back then we didn't know we were built to fall apart
Cadd9
We broke the status quo, then we broke each other's hearts
πΈ Pre-Chorus:
Am C
But don't forget about the night out in L.A.
G D
Dance in the kitchen, chase me down through the hallway
Am C
No ones knows about the words that we whispered
G D
No one knows how much I miss you
πΈ Chorus:
Cadd9 G D
I wish I could fly
Cadd9 Em7 D
I'd pick you up and we'd go back in time
Cadd9 G D
I'd write this in the sky
Cadd9 Em7 D
I miss you like it was the very first night
πΈ Post-Chorus:
Cadd9 G D
Take me away, take me away
Cadd9 Em7 D
Take me away, to you, to you
Cadd9 G D
Take me away, take me away
Cadd9 Em7 D
Take me away, to you, to you
πΈ Bridge:
Am C
I remember the night at the hotel
G D
I was riding in the car when we both fell

I'm the one on the phone as you whisper

Do you know how much I miss you?
