Intro: C
C F
All this walking around kills the time but it still helps me think
Am F
About everything, used to be you and me
C F
As I walk and I pace it's familiar faces and drinks
Am F
They don't drown anything, they don't dull out the sting
Am C G
Cause maybe I'd be better off alone and letting go
C
So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
F
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
Am
With everything said and every wound open
F C
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
F
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Am
Over chords that come unclothed
F
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
C
Until you maybe come back
C F
I've had plenty of hours alone with just me and my room
Am F
But what keeps peeking through is the pictures of you
C F
And if anyone asks you can tell them I'm doing okay
Am F
It's just day after day, I'm still seeing your face
Am C G
Cause maybe I'm just better off alone
C
So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
F
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
Am
With everything said and every wound open
F C
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
F
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Am
Over chords that come unclothed
F
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
C
Until you maybe come back
C
So here I am alone searching for a cover blown
F
How am I to hide when I've got so much to atone for?
Am
Tell me that you're never gonna throw it away
F
And the time we have together wasn't something you're afraid of
C F
Cause we're so much bigger than the moment
Am F
Please take my heart as your condolence
C
So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
F
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
Am
With everything said and every wound open
F C
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
F
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Am
Over chords that come unclothed
F
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
C
Until you maybe come back
