Intro:  C9 G6 C Em      (2x)

C9             G6
I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
C                  Em
I feel so far from where I've been
C9                    G6
I got my eggs.  I got my pancakes too
C                     D
I got my maple syrup, everything but you
C9                     G6
I break the yolks, make a smiley face
C                     Em
I kinda like it in my brand new place
         C9                                   G6
Wipe the spots off of the mirror don't leave the keys in the door
C                            D
I never put my towels on the floor anymore 'cause

Chorus:
C           D
Dreams last so long
G    D/F          Em
Even after you're gone
C           D
I know that you love me
G        D/F      Em
And soon you will see
C
You were meant for me
    D               Em   Em 
And I was meant for you

C9                      G6
I called my Momma, she was out for a walk
C                            Em
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk so I
C9                     G6
Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
C                           D
More hearts being broken or people being used
C9                 G6
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
C                     Em
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
       C9           G6
'Cause it was happy oh I was sad and
C                   D
It made me miss you oh so bad

**Chorus

Bridge:
C                         D
Go about my business, I'm doing fine
         G               D/F            Em
Besides, what I say if I had you on the line
C                   D
Same old story, not much to say
Em
Hearts are broken every day


C9 G6 C Em (2x)

C9                        G6
I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
C                         Em
I know you hate it when I leave the light on
  C9            G6
I pick a book up.  Turn the sheets down.
C                        D
Take a deep breath and a good look around
C9              G6
Put on my pj's and hop into bed
    C                     Em
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
C9                       G6
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
C                         D
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight

**Chorus


C
You were meant for me
    D
And I was meant for
C9   G6   C   Em
You ...............
