[Verse 1]
TDhis is the longest day I've ever had
IG'm far away but I am right there
IBmf distance only makes you stronger
DoAn't make it last any longer
MDy mind is racing and it won't stop
AGnd every thought is something negative
I Bmhope this doesn't last forever
WAe're always meant to be together
BmI won't lie, this hGurts more than you'll ever Dknow
[Pre-Chorus]
AThat's when something told me that
[Chorus]
GIf I pinch Amyself so that I Bmwake
That means it Dnever really happened
'GCause I can feel my Atears finding their Bmway
I fear it's Dworse than I imagined
[Verse 2]
DI'm sick of writing every thought out
GReliving every single moment
BmSay what you mean, it's now or never
ABecause nothing is forever
BmI won't lie, this Ghurts more than you'll ever Dknow
(The thought of you all alone)
Your Bmeyes rolled back as you Gfade to black
(DIt's not worth living without you)
[Pre-Chorus]
AThat's when something told me that
[Chorus]
IGf I pinch Amyself so that I Bmwake

'Cause GI can feel my Atears finding their Bmway
I fear it's Dworse than I imagined

[Intro]

D G D

[Verse 1]

This is the longest day I've ever had

I'm far away but I am right there

If distance only makes you stronger

Don't make it last any longer

My mind is racing and it won't stop

And every thought is something negative

I hope this doesn't last forever

We're always meant to be together

Bm G D

I won't lie, this hurts more than you'll ever know

[Pre-Chorus]

That's when something told me that

[Chorus]

G A Bm

If I pinch myself so that I wake

That means it never really happened

G A Bm

'Cause I can feel my tears finding their way

I fear it's worse than I imagined

[Verse 2]

I'm sick of writing every thought out

Reliving every single moment

Say what you mean, it's now or never

Because nothing is forever

Bm G D

I won't lie, this hurts more than you'll ever know

(The thought of you all alone)

Bm G

Your eyes rolled back as you fade to black

(It's not worth living without you)

[Pre-Chorus]

That's when something told me that

[Chorus]

If I pinch myself so that I wake

That means it never really happened

'Cause I can feel my tears finding their way

I fear it's worse than I imagined

[Bridge]

But I'll hold this memory

D G

And I swear I won't forget your face

G A Bm

'Cause pictures always seem to fade away

Bm G

Now my blood turns red to blue

And I can't breathe without you

Bm G

Now my blood turns red to blue

And I can't breathe without you

No, I can't breathe

[Chorus]

G A Bm

If I pinch myself so that I wake

That means it never really happened

G A Bm

'Cause I can feel my tears finding their way

I fear it's worse than I imagined

And I swear I won't forget your face

Why do they always fade?

Why do they fade away?

[Outro]

D Bm A D A G

Now my blood turns red to blue

A Bm

And I can't breathe without you
