[Intro]
Am  Em  Dm  Em
Am  Em  Dm  Em


[Verse 1]
Am                              Em                          
   I tried to leave it all behind me 
                       Dm                    Em
But I woke up and there, they were beside me
Am                              Em         
   And I don't believe it but I guess it's true
Dm                         Em
   Some feelings, they can travel too
   Am                 Em              
Oh there it is again, sitting on my chest
         Dm                         Em                              
Makes it hard to catch my breath, I scramble for the light to change


[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am        Em           
   You're always on my mind
Dm        Em           
   You're always on my mind


[Chorus 1]
C                                     G  
   And I never minded being on my own
F                                          
   Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home
     C                    
To be where you are
    G           F
But even closer to you, you seem so very far

Dm
   And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing
Am                              G
   And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind
     F
Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear
     G                          G/G#                  
Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here

Am  Em  Dm  Em


[Verse 2]
Am                             Em                          
   And if I stay home, I don't know there'll be so much 
        Dm                       Em                   Am
That I'll have to let go, you're disappearing all the time
            Em             Dm                  Em
But I still see you in the light, for you, the shadows fight
Am                                  Em
And it's beautiful but there's that tug in the sight
            Dm                     Em
I must stop time traveling, you're always on my mind


[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am        Em           
   You're always on my mind
Dm        Em           
   You're always on my mind


[Chorus 2]
C                                     G  
   And I never minded being on my own
F                                          
   Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home
     C                    
To be where you are
    G           F
But even closer to you, you seem so very far

Dm
   And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing
Am                              G
   And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind
     F
Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear
     G                          G/G#                  
Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here


[Bridge]
Am      Em      F       Dm
  (here)  (here)  (here)  (here)  
Am
   We all need something watching over us
C
Be it the falcons, the clouds or the cross
             Dm                                      
And then the sea swept in and left us all speechless
Em
   Speechless


[Chorus 3]
C                                     G  
   And I never minded being on my own
F                                          
   Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home
     C                    
To be where you are
    G           F
But even closer to you, you seem so very far

Dm
   And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing
Am                              G
   And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind
     F
Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear
     G                          G/G#                  
Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here


[Outro]
C   G F
        Wish that you were here
C   G F
        Wish that you were here
Dm  Am  G
        Wish that you were here
F         G             G/G#   Am
        I wish that you
