Verse-
D5D5
We watched the sunset
Gsus2Gsus2
And we told ourselves to never forget
D5D5
Just how good it felt to be surrounded
Gsus2Gsus2
By a town that we knew like the back of our hands
B5B5 A5A5 G5G5
We felt alive, home for the very first time.
(Intro/Chorus) x2
(Post-Chorus) x2
Verse-
D5D5
It's been a year now
Gsus2Gsus2
But I still appreciate the sundown
D5D5
It reminds me somehow things will work out
Gsus2Gsus2
And I'll fall to your arms just like I'd always do
B5B5 A5A5 G5G5 B5B5 A5A5
It felt so good, it was the very first time I felt alive
G5G5
Yeah, so alive
(Intro/Chorus) x2
(Post-Chorus) x2

D5D5
If I could sing this out loud I'd scream it to the clouds
G5G5
And everyone in this town would know what I'm about
B5B5
I'd rather die than feel this pain take me over again
G5G5
It's so hard to let you go
D5D5 G5G5 D5D5 G5G5
D5D5 G5G5 B5B5 G5G5
Is it safe to say?
D5D5 G5G5 D5D5 G5G5
Outro-
D5D5 G5G5
Is it safe to say in the morning you'll come back
D5D5
And things will be the same?
G5G5 D5D5
'Cause since the day you left you know I've had a hard time
G5G5 D5D5
And I want you to know if you hear these words
G5G5
Please just come back
