[Intro]

C F C F C F Am G

[Verse]

C F

On a sunday in May

C F

when I first saw your face

C F Am G

I thought you were somehow familiar

C F

You told me that day

C F

that I wasn't safe

C F Am G

I said don't let your memories hold you

F C G

You told me you'd never be close

to anyone like me

F Am G

and you are all I see

C F

Now I'm moving away

C F

somewhere far from L.A.

C F Am G

and you're staying behind to keep climbing

C F

I made up my mind

C F

that I wouldn't this time

C F Am G

go for someone who's still out there wandering

F C G

Now you're closer to me

than anyone has been

F Am G

and you are all I see

[Chorus]

C F Am G

Now I'm packing my bags

C F G

but I don't want to go

C F C F

I'm leaving the place that we used to call home

C G C

but I'll take you wherever I go

C F C F C F Am G

[Verse]

C F

How I do wish

C F

that I had you to kiss

C F Am G

in the dark of this cold Sunday morning

C F

We'll work out our lives

C F

we'll wait for our time

C F Am G

but for now I'll be with you in writing

F C G

Now you're closer to me

than anyone has been

F Am G

and you are all I see

[Chorus]

C F Am G

So I'm packing my bags

C F G

I don't want to go

C F Am G

If I wait here too long

C F G

then I won't ever know

C F C F

I'm leaving the place that we used to call home

C G C

but I'll take you wherever I go

[Outro]
