[Verse 1]
B
Take it slow
                       F#             E
Tell me all how you've grown just for me

Could we all reminisce
B
Better yet, here's a pen
       F#
Make a list
        E
Fill it full with all the things I've missed
             F#
'Cause I can barely drive past the school
    G#m
Without stopping to think of you
    E
And how we used to act a fool
    F#
But worst of all I wish I called
   G#m
At least a thousand times or more
E
Just to hear what I've been missing


[Chorus]
B                          F#
If a picture is all that I have
                                E
I can picture the times that we won't get back
                             G#m
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
       F#                         B
Either way, I still wish you were here
                                F#
Don't say everything's meant to be
                                  E
'Cause you know it's not what I believe
                                            G#m
Can't help but think that it should've been me
       F#                         B
Either way, I still wish you were here

[Verse 2]
B
Thinking back on the days
                     F#
Where we all used to say
       E
I know anywhere's better than here
       B
In the back of the class
                     F#
Where we grew up too fast
       E
Living life like there's nothing to fear
        F#
But the ice on the road
        G#m
Driving home all alone
        E
Singing along to a song from three summers ago
             F#                 G#m
The one that made you remember it
D#5      E
Now I'll always remember it
       F#
As the song that your life ended with


[Chorus 1]
B                          F#
If a picture is all that I have
                                E
I can picture the times that we won't get back
                             G#m
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
       F#                         B
Either way, I still wish you were here
                                F#
Don't say everything's meant to be
                                  E
'Cause you know it's not what I believe
                                            G#m
Can't help but think that it should've been me
       F#                         G#m
Either way, I still wish you were here


[Bridge]
         E                          B
And they say you're in a better place
                                      G#m
But a better place is right here with me
          E                          F#
Yeah they say you're in a better place
                        B
Too bad it's not what I believe

[Chorus 2]
                               F#
'Cause a picture is all that I have
                               E
To remind me that you're never coming back
                                     G#m
If i picture it now it just makes me sad
          F#                         B
And right now I just wish you were here
                                F#

Can't help but think that it should've been me
       F#                       B
In the end I just wish you were here


[Ending]
                                 F#
Yeah they say you're in a better place
                                 E
Either way I still wish you were here
                               G#m
They say you're in a better place

In the end I just wish you were here
