Tom: C
C Em F G C Em F G
I'll never forget the feeling I had that first night
C Em F G C Em F G
We never exactly locked eyes but
I felt our worlds collide
C Em F G C Em F G
And I embraced the chemistry as
it tore its way through my body
C Em F G C Em F G
And we spent hours and hours and hours in each other's company
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G Em
As the weeks progressed
F
I got this aching in my chest
G Em
I felt as if I was meant to be with you
F
And everything finally made sense
G Em
But when the time finally arrived
F
Where you were done with meeting my eyes
G
I wasn't surprised to find
Em F
I wasn't everything you searched for
G
I wasn't everything you searched for
[Instrumental]
C Em F G
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G Em
So I put pressure on myself
F
To explain why I was the way I was
G Em
I feared everything about us
F
But you've heard this same story more than once
G Em
I hate the fact that you're now gone
F
Another lost one to add to the books
G Em F
And now I regret how I deprived you of what you deserved
[Chorus]
C Em F G C Em F G
I guess all I can be is honest with you
C Em F G C Em F G
I'm sorry that I couldn't be everything you want
C Em F G C Em F G
Now every moment we spend apart I spend missing you
C Em F G C Em F G
Because my worries pushed you away and I regret that too
C Em F G C Em F G
And I could never face up to you after tonight
C Em F G C Em F G
Because I once saw the stars in your eyes and now that's all gone
C Em F G C Em F G
And I'm feeling so empty as I say goodnight for the last time
C Em F G C Em F G
Because I left it up to you, I guess this is goodbye
[Outro]
C Em F G C Em F G
I'll never forget the feeling I had that first night
C Em F G C Em F G
And it's making this harder because I still feel it tonight
C Em F G C Em F G
Never again will I look deep into your eyes or feel our worlds collide
C Em F G C
Because I wasn't the one you wanted by your side
