Intro: Bbm F

Bbm                             F
Round and round I go in circles trying to be free,
                                 D#m     Bbm
Since you went away the world is closing in on me.
D         Bbm             D#m
Every day I face tomorrow knowing you'll be there.
G#                              C#
I see your face in every little thing we used to share.
Bbm D#m    A         Em         F
The memory of you is everywhere.
G#     C# F# C#                    F#        Bbm
And my world keeps getting smaller every day,
F#    Bbm             D#m
I run but I can't run away.
                          G#
You're with me everywhere I go
      C#  Bbm                          D#m     F# Bbm
And I find   you're in my heart and in my mind,
c#         Bbm                    D#m
There's no place left on earth to stay,
G#                    C#         F
My world gets smaller every day.
Bbm                          F
In the lonely of the morning when I'm waking up,
                                  Bbm
I find you standing at the bottom of my coffee cup.
                         D#m
I see you on the highway when I'm driving in the car.
G#                   C#
Downtown in the city I just turn and there you are.
F#                 A         Bbm     F
I run from you but never get too far.
G#     C#  F#  C#                    D#m       F#
And my world   keeps getting smaller every day
Bbm               D#m
I run but I can't run away,
                    G#          C#
You're with me everywhere I go.
G#    C#  Bbm C#                 Bbm    F#
And I find    you're in my heart and in my mind,
Bbm                               D#m
There's no place left on earth to stay,
G#                    C#
my world gets smaller every day.
