Intro
G D A Bm A
G D Asus4 A
 
verse 1
G D A
The stubble on your face must have replaced
Bm A G D Asus4 A
The little pieces of me that remained on you
G D A
I'm surprised you even came
Bm A G
I thought my name would send you running
D Asus4 A
When it lit up your phone
 
Pre-Chorus
G A Bm G
Oh, how much I wanted to say
A Bm G Asus4 Bm
But I got caught up in the way you said
D Asus4
You hadn't heard any of my songs
Bm A Bm
So I wrote this one for you
 
[Refrão]G D Bm A
Am I the stranger in your wildest dreams?
G D Bm A
And when you can't sleep at night, do you ever think of me?
G D F#7 Bm
Cause somedays I get lost in my head
G A
And I wonder what it would be like to be
G D A
In yours instead,
Bm A G D Asus4 A
yours instead
 
verse 2
G D A
So we talk about our days
Bm A G
The ways we changed and what we knew
D Asus4 A
From a world long ago
G D A
All your edges, they feel harder
Bm A G
And you're guarded, boy, I wonder
D Asus4 A
What your brother thinks of me
 
Pre-Chorus
G A Bm G
Oh, how much I wanted to say
A Bm G Asus4 Bm
But I got caught up in the way you said

You hadn't heard any of my songs

G D A Bm
You didn't leave the light on for me
A G
And who could blame you?
D Asus4 A
I would've done the same
G D A Bm
And I feel nostalgia wash over me
A G
But I don't mind it
D Asus4 A
I'll always wish you well
