[Intro]
B F# E
[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
[Interlude]

[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

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
[Bridge Riff]

[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#
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
In the end I just wish you were here
[Ending]

Yeah they say you're in a better place

Either way I still wish you were here

They say you're in a better place
