[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
G
Last night I heard my own heart beating
A
Sounded like footsteps on my stairs
Bm
Six months gone and I'm still reaching
A
Even though I know you're not there
G
I was playing back a thousand memories, baby
A
Thinking 'bout everything we've been through
Bm
Maybe I've been going back too much lately
A
When time stood still and I had you
[Chorus]
G
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You would, you would, if this was a movie
Bm A G A
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You could, you could, if you just said you're sorry
Bm A G
I know that we could work it out somehow
A G A Bm A
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Verse 2]
G
I know people change and these things happen
A
But I remember how it was back then
Bm
Locked up in your arms and our friends are laughing
A
'Cause nothing like this ever happened to them
G
Now I'm pacing down the hall
A
Chasing down your street
Bm A
Flashback to the night when you said to me
G A
Nothing's gonna change not for me and you
Bm A
Not before I knew how much I had to lose
[Chorus]
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You would, you would, if this was a movie
Bm A G A
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You could, you could, if you just said you're sorry
Bm A G
I know that we could work it out somehow
A G A Bm A
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Bridge]
G
If you're out there, if you're
A
Somewhere, if you're moving on
D
I've been waiting for you
Bm
Ever since you've been gone
G A
I just want it back the way it was before
Dsus2 BmA G
* * *
And I just wanna see you back at my front door
And I'd say...
[Chorus]
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You would before you said it's not that easy
Bm A G
Before the fight, before I locked you out
A
*
But I take it all back now
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You would, you would, if this was a movie
Bm A G A
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out
D
Come back, come back, come back to me-e like
A
You could, you could, if you just said you're sorry
Bm A G
I know that we could work it out somehow
A G ABm
*
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Outro]
A G A Bm
You'd be here by now
A G A Bm
It's not the kind of ending you wanna see now
A G A Bm
Baby, what about the ending, oh
A G A Bm A G A Bm
I thought you'd be here by now, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A G A Bm
Thought you'd be here by now
