Verse: 
D                A                E 
For the longest time I’ve been wrong and wrong again 
D                A                   E 
I hope it’s not too late to mend your heart 
D           A              E 
God knows sometimes I blew it 
 E 
Tell me what to do I’ll do it

There’s no safer place than in your arms

Well I found that note dated April 24 
Bm                                    E 
Must have been two days before you walked out the door

Tell me, how many hearts will break?

verse 2: 
  
D           A               E 
I sat down at my laptop, searched through my whole inbox 
D            A              E 
For messages I never did reply 
D              A               E 
Then I started one by one, writing letters to everyone 
   D         A              E       
That pushed away with my pride 

Pre-Chorus 

Gm                
And I found old friends 
A 
And I thanked my mom 
Bm                                E 
And I told my brother, it’s been way too long

How many loves are gonna lose?

Because I can’t make the same mistakes again 
Gm                           A 
Oh I can’t live without you no more 
Bm                             E
