[Intro]
G   Cadd9x2
[Verse 1]
GWoke up to the sound of Cadd9pouring rain
GThe wind would whisper and I'd tCadd9hink of you
GAnd all the tears you cried, that cCadd9alled my name
DAnd when you needed me CI came through
[Verse 2]
GI paint a picture of the dCadd9ays gone by
GWhen love went blind and you would mCadd9ake me see
GI'd stare a lifetime inCadd9to your eyes
DSo that I knew you were tChere for me
DTime after time you were tChere for me
[Chorus]
GRemember yesterday, Dwalking hand in hand
EmLove letters in the sand, CI remember yGou
Through the sleepless nights Dand every endless day
EmI'd wanna hear you say, CI remember GyouC  G  C  
[Verse 3]
GWe spent the summer with the tCadd9op rolled down
GWished ever after would Cadd9be like this
GYou said I love you babe, withCadd9out a sound
DI said I'd give my life for jCust one kiss
DI'd live for your smile and dCie for your kiss

Through the sleepless nights Dand every endless day
