Lyrics

No bod y lis (Absus2)tens to me; don’t hear a sin (Absus2)gle thing I’ve said. Say an y thing (Absus2)to soothe me, an y thing that (Absus2)gets you (CN.C.)from my head. Don’t know how I real (Absus2)ly feel; I (Eb)fake the daze to make (Absus2)like I don’t care. Don’t know how much (Absus2)it hurts; I (Eb)turn a round like (Absus2)you were nev er there. Like some how, (Ebmaj7)you could be re (Ab5)placed, and I could (Ebmaj7)walk a way from the (Ab)prom is es we made and swore we’d nev er break. I thought I lost you (Fm7)when you (Absus2)ran a way to try (Bb)to find me; I thought I’d nev er (Fm7)see your (Absus2)sweet face (Bb)a gain. I turned a round (Fm7)and you were gone, and on and on (Bb)the days went. I kept the mo ment that (Ab)we were in, ’cause I hoped in my heart you’d come (Bb)back to me, my (Eb)friend. And now I got you; but I (Fm7)thought I’d lost you. I felt so emp (Absus2)ty out there, and there were days (Absus2)I had my doubts. But I knew I’d find (Absus2)you some where, be (Eb)cause I knew I could (Absus2)n’t live with out you in my life for one more day. And I swore I’d (Ebmaj7)nev er break those (Ab)prom is es we made. I (Cm)told my (CN.C.)self I would n’t (Bb)sleep till I (Eb)searched the world from sea (Fm)to sea. I (Cm)made a wish up on (Bb)a star; I (Fm)turn a round, and there you were. Now (Ebmaj7)here we are, are. Here we are. I thought I lost I you. thought I lost you, too. I thought I lost I thought you. I lost you. Yeah. I thought I lost you (Fm7)when you (Absus2)ran a way to try (Bb)to find me; I thought I’d nev er (Fm7)see your sweet face (Bb)a gain. I turned a round (Fm7)and you were gone, and on and on (Bb)the days went. I kept the mo ment that (Ab)we were in, ’cause I hoped in my heart you’d come (Bb)back to me, my (Eb)friend. And now I got you; but I (Fm7)thought I lost you. (Absus2)But I thought I lost you. thought I lost you, too. (Absus2)So glad I (Eb)got you, got (Absus2)you. (Absus2)So glad I (Eb)got you, (Absus2)yeah, yeah. I thought I lost I you. I lost you, too.
