(The chords to the song are lower down the page.)
The intro and first/second verse of the song has a simple 1-2-3-4 tab:

G|--0-------------|--0-------------|--0-------------|--0-------------|
D|0---------------|0---------------|0---------------|0---------------|

The tabs slightly change during the part right before the chorus:
"I don't have time
e|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

I couldn't quite make out the tabs used throughout the chorus - sorry about that!
The following chords can be used throughout the song:
C | G | D
There are four counts each for C and G then a count of eight for D.
I have included the chords for the intro should there be a struggle with the tabs.
The bridge sounds so much better if you strum each chord once before progressing into the standard
strum for the chorus. "/" represents the number of strums or strokes.
Be sure to leave a five star rating if this was accurate for you! I'm more than happy to answer any questions
left in the comment section. Thank you and happy playing!
[INTRO:]
C |G |D |x2
[VERSE ONE:]
CTwo weeks away it feels like the Gwhole world should've changed
But I'm Dhome now
And things still look the same
CI think I'll leave it till toGmorrow to unpack
Try to forDget for one more night
That I'm back in my flat on the Croad
Where the cars never stop Ggoing through the night
To a Dlife where I can watch sunset
I don't have Ctime
GI don't have Dtime
[CHORUS:]
C I've still got saGnd in my shoes D
And I can't shake the thought of you
C I should get onG, forget you D
But why would I want to
C I know we sGaid goodbye
DAnything else would've been confused but CI G wanna see you agDain
[VERSE TWO:]
C Tomorrow's back to work and doGwn to sanity
should run a bDath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here
C Try to remind myself that GI was happy here
Before I Dknew that I could get on the plane and fly away
From the roCad where the cars never stop Ggoing through the night
To a Dlife where I can watch sunset
And take my Ctime G
Take all our Dtime
[CHORUS:]
C I've still got saGnd in my shoes D
And I can't shake the thought of you
C I should get onG, forget you D
But why would I want to
C I know we sGaid goodbye
DAnything else would've been confused but CI G wanna see you agDain
IC G wanna see you agDain
[BRIDGE:]
C/ G/ D/
Two weeks away, all it takes to change and turn me around, I've fallen
C/ G/ D/
I walked away and never said that I wanted to see again
[CHORUS:]
C I've still got saGnd in my shoes D
And I can't shake the thought of you
C I should get onG, forget you D
But why would I want to
C I know we sGaid goodbye
DAnything else would've been confused but CI G wanna see you agDain
C I've still got saGnd in my shoes D
And I can't shake the thought of you
C I should get onG, forget you D
But why would I want to
C I know we sGaid goodbye
DAnything else would've been confused but CI G wanna see you agDain

I wanna see you again
