[Verse 1]
CI can go for days, even months
without Emthinking of you, not even once

Emlaughing and looking up at the stars
a Fshadow falls over your face as you turn to AmmeG  
[Pre-chorus]
You say CI won't be happy til I give you the world
Don't you kFnow you'll always be my girl
and I Amwake up with your words echoing through my Ghead
[Chorus]
Are you Cthinking of me where you are now?
Are you Emhappy with how your life's turning out?
FAlthough we were kids back then
We Amboth knew how much it Gmeant
I'm Cthinking of you where I am now
I'm Emhappy with how my life's turing out
But a pFart of me will always be

[Intro]

C Em F Am G

[Verse 1]

I can go for days, even months

without thinking of you, not even once

F Am G

then like a wave you come crashing into my dreams

I'm sitting with you in your beat up car

laughing and looking up at the stars

F Am G

a shadow falls over your face as you turn to me

[Pre-chorus]

You say I won't be happy til I give you the world

Don't you know you'll always be my girl

Am G

and I wake up with your words echoing through my head

[Chorus]

Are you thinking of me where you are now?

Are you happy with how your life's turning out?

Although we were kids back then

Am G

We both knew how much it meant

I'm thinking of you where I am now

I'm happy with how my life's turing out

But a part of me will always be

Am G
