[C] [G]
[C] [Em]
[G] I hear the clock, it's 6am
[C] I feel so [Em] far from where I've been
[G] I've got my eggs and my pancakes too [C] Got the maple syrup, [D] everything but you
I break the [G] yolks and make a smiley face [C] I kinda [Em] like it in my brand new place
That wife [C] is [G] faultable, but me, I don't leave the keys in the door
[C] I never put my towels on [D] the floor anymore [C]
Cause dreams last [D] for so long
[G] Even after you're [Em] gone
[C] I know [D] you love me [G] and soon you will see
You [C] were meant for me [D] and I was [Bm] meant [Em] for you
[G]
[D] [G] I called my mom when she was out for a walk [C] And sold a cup of coffee, [Em] but it didn't want to [G] talk
So I picked up the paper, it was more bad news [C] My heart being broken, [D] more painful than yours
[C] [G] Put on my coat in the pouring [C] rain I saw a movie, [Em] it just wasn't the [G] same
Cause it was happy, oh, I was sad [C] And it made me miss you, [D] oh so bad
[C] Cause dreams [D] last for so [G] long
Even after [Em] you're gone
[C] I know [D] you love me [G] and soon you will see
[C] You were meant for me [D] and I was meant [Em] for you
I
[Am] go about my business, [D] I'm doing fine [Bm] Besides, what would I say [D] if I had [C]
[Am] mine?
Same old story, [D] not much to [Bm] say Heart's [A] [Em] every day
[C] [G]
[C] [Em]
[C] [G] I brush my teeth, I put the cap back on [C] I know you hate [Em] it when I leave the light on
I [G] pick up a cup and turn the sheets down [C] And take a deep breath
[D] And a good look around [G] my PJs and hop into bed
[C] I'm half alive, [Em] but I feel mostly dead I [C] [G] try and tell myself it'll be alright
I [C] shouldn't think [D] and want to deny Cause [C] dreams last [D] for so [G] long
Even [Em] after you're gone
[C] I know [D] you love me [G] and soon I know you will [Em]
see
You were [C] meant for me [D] and I was meant [Em] for you
Yeah, [C] you were meant for me [D] and I was meant for [G] you
[C] [Am]
[Em]
