Lyrics:
-VERSE 1-
E5Katie, don't cry, I know
You're Btrying your harC#m7dest
And the hardest partB is letting, E5go
Of the nights we shared
OBcala is caC#m7lling and you know it's haunBting
But comparedA5 to your eyesB5, nothing shineC#m7s quite as brightE5
And when we A5look to the skyB5, its not mineC#m7, but I want E5it so
-PRE-CHORUS 1-
E5(second)Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I B5know he's there and)C#m7
You're probably hanging out and maBking eyes
(while across the room, he stareA5s)
I bet he gets the nerve to walB5k the floor
And B/Cask my girl to C#m7dance, she'll sayB yes
-CHORUS 1-
Because these A5words were never easier for B5me to say
Or B/Cher to second gC#m7uess
But IB guess
That F#mI can live withE7/G#out you but
WithA5out you I'll be mB5iserable at bE5(second)est
-VERSE 2- (Changes Slightly)
(Continue from E5[second])
You're all that I hoped I'd find
In every single C#m7way
And everything I could Bgive
Is everything you couldn't tE5(second)ake
Cause nothing feels like hoD#5me, you're a thousand miles awC#m7ay
And the hardest part of lBiving
Is just taking breaths to staA5y
'Cause I know I'm good for somB5ething
I just B/Chaven't found it yC#m7et
But I neBed it
-PRE-CHORUS 2- (Changes Slightly)
ELet's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I Bknow he's there and)C#m7
You're probably hanging out and maBking eyes
(while across the room, he stareA5s)
I bet he gets the nerve to walB5k the floor
And B/Cask my girl to C#m7dance, she'll sayB yes
-CHORUS 2- (Changes Slightly)
Because these A5words were never easier for B5me to say
Or B/Cher to second gC#m7uess
But IB guess
That F#mI can live withE7/G#out you but
WithA5out you I'll be mB5iserable at bE7/G#est

E7/G#And this will be the firA5st time in a weB5ek
That I'll talk to yB/Cou
And I can't speC#m7ak
Been three whole days since I've had sleBep
'Cause I dream of his lips on your cheE7/G#ek
And I got the point that I should A5leave you alone
But wB5e both know that I'm nB/Cot that strong
AndC#m7 I miss the lips that made me flBy
-REPEAT PRE-CHORUS 1-
