[Verse 1]
  EWake up, go to work,      E/D#come home, it's not working
    C#mWe've been living our whole lives Aon a system that is broken
   EYour words, I hear themE/D#,     they're sharp, can't get near them
    C#mWe've got one last chance, Aone more time to make this happen
[Chorus]
We've got Eone time, time to get this Bright
Two times and you know it's not my C#mstyle
Three's company, just you and Ame, we need to figure this one out
  EFour little words are all you said,   BFive minutes later we're in bed
   C#mCan't count on you to love me, but AI can count the days that you've been gone
[Verse 2]
  EBreak up, I come home,     E/D#I realize that it's not working
   C#mYou're gone, and it goes,  AI miss the noise of all our fighting
  EAnd you know that I don't mean a word I say
    E/D#And I know that you don't wanna stay away
   C#mHow long am I gonna be counting the Adays you're gone?
[Chorus]
We've got Eone time, time to get this Bright
Two times and you know it's not my C#mstyle
Three's company, just you and Ame, we need to figure this one out
  EFour little words are all you said,   BFive minutes later we're in bed
   C#mCan't count on you to love me, but AI can count the days that you've been gone
[Bridge]
  C#mEver since I Asaw you there was no one Eelse, just you and Bme
(You were all that I could see)
   C#mBut I got this Aproblem, don't know how to Esay what I Bmean
What I Bmean

We've got one time, time to get this right
Two time and you know it's not my style
