B                        F#
You should have heard me sobbing
E                   B
As I drove home that night
B               F#          
Got into bed and stayed there
E              G
For days I just laid there
           B           G#  
Having been permanently changed
      E                   A
But we won't get into that now
                      E      B
Let's take it from the start


B                      F#
You should have seen me smiling
E                 B
Like the world was mine
B                  F#
She used to call me baby
E       G          
Softly, sometimes
         B                        G# 
But if I dwell on those days too long
               E            
I feel like my life is over
     A             
And that's no good
               E  B
So let's move on

B                G    D          A   
To the part where I begin to sense
    C#           
Her distance
   D         D#       E               
I panic and hold on tighter
E                 D      
But that makes it worse
            A       C#     
How am I supposed to take it
           D   
When she said:
              D#          E           F            F#                 B    
"This is something I'm going through, It's got nothing to do with you"

B               F#                   E   
I had a special evening all planned out
                 B         F#         
Desperately determined to reignite
B              F#        
Some spark between us
                      E          
She had to feel something for me
   B         F#            
A love as strong as ours
B                 F#   
Doesn't just go away
                        E   
You can't just turn it off
                 B     F#         B      
Unless she was lying all those times
                F# 
But I don't think so
   E                        
I really don't think so
    B      F#               B 
The way she used to look at me
            F#               
Made me a thousand feet high
     E                    B   
The meaning of the word cool
           F#       
Not the same geek
       B                              F#   
Who fumbled through his words that night
      E           B F# B
The ugliest night
                     F#            
I said some pretty awkward things
E                        B       F#        B   
I got the feeling that she felt sorry for me
                             F#                    E  
I should have seen it was hopeless and left it alone
                 B      F#           B   
But I had to go on embarrassing myself             


                 F#                E    B F# B     |
"I miss what we had I need you so badly,           |  2x
                F#                E     B F# B     |
I miss what we had I need you so badly"            |

B                     F#                 E   
I must have sounded pretty pathetic, I know
                     B           F#         B    
That's why I don't blame her for what she said
                   F#     
But listen to me rambling
           E                   G     
We don't know each other that well
                       A    B  
But you're so easy to talk to
                   G#                  E    
I feel like I can tell you almost anything
   A               A      E    
I hope I haven't put you off
          A        E          
I have a tendency to do that
  A            E      B     
Why don't I just be quiet?
