G Am Em Am G
i tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to
F G7/E Dm Dm/C G
hand in hand like lovers are supposed to
C Am
As you'd sleep I'd think my heart would break in two
C Am
I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop myself from waking you
Am Em
But in the dark you'd speak my name
Em Am C G
You'd say baby what's wrong ?
C Am
Oh ? Here I am baby I'm coming back for more
C Am
I'm like a wave that's got to roll into the shore

C Am
Now you and me go parallel together and apart
C Am
And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart
Am Em
Did you never feel the distance
Em Am
You never tried to cross no line
C Am
'Cause it's another dirty river and another dirty scar
C Am
And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are
Am Em
So far from home
Am C G
Don't you think of me sometime
