Bm7 (x20202@1)    Am (x02210@1)                    Gwell (320003@1)i think i might miss you enough to say so

Bm7 (x20202@1)      Am (x02210@1)            Gthere (320003@1)you go i just said it again

that same winter my old man made tracks
and i did too but i came back
so don't don't don't explain love to me
love love love is not why we leave
it is real life dreams, make-believe people
you can't build cathedrals out of finger steeples

and we drop drop tears like tallymarks
and it builds like snow and it keeps us apart
and i drop drop tears like tallymarks
and i'm keeping score so i keep us apart

but i think i might miss you enough to say so
and i think i already did
well i think i might miss you enough to say so
there you go i just said it again
there you go i just said it again

G (320003@1)       Bm11             A7Sus4    Csteady (x32010@1)on steady on steady on my mind
steady on my mind
steady on steady on steady on my mind
steady on my mind
surely surely i
surely surely i want love just as bad as the next
but deeper down in my, deeper down in my bones
is where it sets
