[Verse 1]
C
  Got a job at a dead-end place,
C
  I was happy just gettin' paid.
C
  Started smokin' ten years too late,
C
  didn't know life could change that way.

[Bridge]
        Am         G                   C            C
When we met in the bar right when your friends were leavin',
Am             G       C            C
stay 'til last orders, talkin' 'til 3 a.m,
Am          G           C          F       F       (F)
Asked me to meet you at Bloomsbury Square;
      Am        G       C      C      C      C
Look, baby, I'm already there

[Verse 2]
C
  I was thrown by your childish ways,
C
  how you'd laugh when I'd make mistakes.
C
  How we'd go without sleep for days,
C
  ain't no hope in me thinkin' straight.

[Bridge]
Am           G             C             C
Forward five weeks, I'm in your parents' kitchen,
     Am          G            C            C
your mom talks a lot and your dad does the dishes.
    Am           G           C       F
You tell me that nothin' has ever compared,
      Am        G       C      C
well, baby, I'm already there.

[Interlude]
| Am         | G          | C          | C          |
| Am         | G          | C          | C          |
| Am         | G          | C          |
| F          | F          | F          | F          |

[Verse 3]
C
  Got a place way too small for two
C
  but you said it's enough for you.
C
  Found a staircase up to the roof,
C
  to this day it's my favorite view.

[Bridge]
           Am            G            C             C
'Cause you looked up and finished the beer you were drinkin',
Am        G             C                C
takin' my hand, I could tell what you're thinkin'.
Am           G             C            F
You said, "I love you" for once I'm not scared
        Am        G       C      C
'cause, baby, I'm already there.

[Interlude]
| Am         | G          | C          | C          |
| Am         | G          | C          | C          |
| Am         | G          | C          |
| F          | F          | F          | F          |

[Verse 4]
C
  Second summer we spent apart,
C
  sleepin' underneath different stars.
Am         G            C           F      F       F      (F)
  They all said it'd be really hard.

[Outro]
      Am         G             C               C
But I think that distance made our hearts grow fonder,
       Am           G              C        C
'cause I called and cried, I can't take any longer.
     Am           G            C           F      F      F
As I look out the window, it's worth it, I swear,
        Am        G       C      C
'cause, baby, I'm already there.
Am        G       C       C
Baby, I'm already there,
        Am        G       C       Dm
mm-hmm, baby, I'm already there,
Am        G       C
baby, I'm already there.
