Dmaj7 E7
When we met we weren’t ready for what would unfold
F#m7 A7
Telling you things I’ve thought that I don’t think I’ve ever told
Dmaj7 E7
You kissed my lips under the streetlights, grabbed my hand to hold
F#m7 A7
Tellin me “baby since you’re with me i won’t be alone”
[Pre-Chorus]
Dmaj7 E7 F#m7 A7
But time makes short work of love
Dmaj7 E7 F#m7
Got me contemplating how it was
A7
Got me wondering…
[Chorus]

So How come I’m feeling so lonely

When you call me you take up the time just talking about yourself

When we’re alone you say you want me through the liquor on your breath

How am I supposed to feel
Dmaj7 E7 F#m7 A7
When it doesn’t seem like you know me for real
