Bm                       D
I hear you crying and I know
                      F#m
What it's like to be alone
         A                  Bm
You're scared and I'm not there
                                D
It's like you're living with a ghost
                   F#m
Someone you can't hold
          A            Em   G   
And you, say it's so unfair

[Chorus:]
      A            D
And just so you know
                         G
The distance is what's killing me
                                Bm
Time and space have become the enemy
     A                 G
And what I need is so far away
 A         D
And so it goes
                        G
The distance makes it hard to breathe
                       Bm
My heart won't let go easily
          A               G
I don't want to be this far away

Bm               D
I'm lying by myself
                      F#m
The silence seems to swell
      A                 Bm
Some-day this all will change
                   D
It's a temporary pain
                             F#m
See your face and speak your name
                 A              Em        G
Till then I'll scream into the night

[Chorus]
      A            D
And just so you know
                         G
The distance is what's killing me
                                Bm
Time and space have become the enemy
     A                 G
And what I need is so far away
 A          D
And so it goes
                        G
The distance makes it hard to breathe
                       Bm
My heart won't let go easily
          A               G
I don't want to be this far away


Em
Well I've got my life
G                          Em
And you've got my world tonight
       D/F#                     G
And I miss you (I miss you), I miss you (I miss you)

[Chorus]
      A            D
And just so you know
                         G
The distance is what's killing me
                                Bm
Time and space have become the enemy
     A                 G
And what I need is so far away
     A        D
And so it goes
                        G
The distance makes it hard to breathe
                       Bm
My heart won't let go easily
          A               G
I don't want to be this far away
