[Verse 1]
C Am7
Could've been a night like any other
F
One of us has to drive, one of us gets to think
C Am7
I'll force a laugh to break the silence
F
It's gonna get harder still before it gets easy
G Am7 F
You can't keep safe what wants to break
[Chorus]
C Am7
I'm alone in this
F
I'm all as I've always been
Gadd11
Right behind what's happening
C Am7
She's all lost in this
F
She's all like she'll always be
Gadd11
A little far for me to reach
[Verse 2]
C Am7
I was just a boy like every other
F
I thought I was something fierce, thought I was ten times smarter
C Cadd9 Am7
Love would be something that I'd just know
F
How you gonna know the feeling till you've lost it
G Am7 F
I've been losing plenty since
[Chorus]
C Am7
I'm alone in this
F
I'm all as I've always been
Gadd11
Right behind what's happening
C Am7
She's all lost in this
F
She's all like she'll always be
Gadd11
A little far for me to reach
[Bridge]
G Am7 F
Maybe something else I'm missing
G Am7 F
Something good and you're the reason
G Am7 F
It's a dream but there's a real world waiting
[Chorus]
C Am7
I'm alone in this
F
I'm all as I've always been
Gadd11
Right behind what's happening
C Am7
She's all lost in this
F
She's all like she'll always be
Gadd11
A little far for me to reach
C Am7
I'm alone in this
F
I'm all as I've always been
Gadd11
Right behind what's happening
C Am7
She's all lost in this
F
She's all like she'll always be
Gadd11 C
