[Intro]
Em D C G x2
[Verse 1]
Em
Never was part of the plan
D
Was supposed to take it like a man
C G
Just the way I've always never been
Em
But now I'm back at home again
D
And you are still here in my head
C G
Like every memory we'd ever planned
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Cause when all you use is your imagination
D D7 G
The only result is devastation
Am7
Cause it'll never be the way you wished
C
And of all the things to exist
D D7 G
The one thing I must've missed
Em
Was that I'd miss you after it was said and done
[Chorus]
Em
You pushed me away and I came running back
D
But when you pushed it threw me back
G C
To all the things we said we'd do together
Em
And I know there's no return to what we had
D
And that's on me, I'll take that stand
G C
But that doesn't stop me from wondering
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
[Verse 2]
Em
Sitting on the couch with pj's on
D
Listening to our favorite song
C G
Knowing later it will be bittersweet
Em
When we have to sit here without the things
D
That once was only possible in dreams
C G
And now we only wish that we could go back to sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Cause when all you use is your imagination
D D7 G
The only result is devastation
Am7
Cause it'll never be the way you wished
C
And of all the things to exist
D D7 G
The one thing I must've missed
Em
Was that I'd miss you after it was said and done
[Chorus]
Em
You pushed me away and I came running back
D
But when you pushed it threw me back
G C
To all the things we said we'd do together
Em
And I know there's no return to what we had
D
And that's on me, I'll take that stand
G C
But that doesn't stop me from wondering
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
Em D
What if we held out
G C
To live out what we imagined love would be about
