There's a Agirl
Across the sea
And though I'm happy being loved it doesn't feel like love to me.G  
Never feels like love to mAe.
There's a giArl
Next to me
And she's happy being lovely and it's not enough for me.G  
It's not enough for meA.
GYou're out of mF#ind, I'm out of tDime,
I only waAnt what I can't sGee,
DBut I'll still Dmwait for her to run to mAe.
Once a boy
Now a man
And even though I've grown 'the best I could' is still the best I cGan.
I'm loving you the best I cDan
And the Agirl
Who's across the sea
And traveled halfway round the world to be the perfect girl for Gme
In all the ways you used to bAe.
GYou're out of mF#ind, I'm out of tiDme
I only waAnt what I can't seGe
DAnd everytDmhing about her's new to mAe.
ENow I see eDverything we Gdo as a rouAtine
EFamiliaDrity breeds awGful things in Eme.
GI was out of my mF#ind, now I'll make tDime
To be the Aman that I could bGe
DAnd I was blDmind to think that you weren't right for mAe
GAnd I was blGmind to think it lay across the seDa

There's a girl

Across the sea

And though I'm happy being loved it doesn't feel like love to me.

Never feels like love to me.

There's a girl

Next to me

And she's happy being lovely and it's not enough for me.

It's not enough for me.

G F# D

You're out of mind, I'm out of time,

A G

I only want what I can't see,

D Dm A

But I'll still wait for her to run to me.

Once a boy

Now a man

And even though I've grown 'the best I could' is still the best I can.

I'm loving you the best I can

And the girl

Who's across the sea

And traveled halfway round the world to be the perfect girl for me

In all the ways you used to be.

G F# D

You're out of mind, I'm out of time

A G

I only want what I can't see

D Dm A

And everything about her's new to me.

E D G A

Now I see everything we do as a routine

E D G E

Familiarity breeds awful things in me.

G F# D

I was out of my mind, now I'll make time

A G

To be the man that I could be

D Dm A

And I was blind to think that you weren't right for me

G Gm D

And I was blind to think it lay across the sea
