  			(Intro) G  G  Am 

G 
I must have been a fool to love you so hard for so long 
           Am 
So much stronger than before, but so much harder to move on 
           G 
Now the bitter chill of the winter. Still moves through me like a plague 
         Am                                                  Bm7 
Only to wake up with an empty bed on a perfect summer day. 
                        Em7          Am                              D 
My world just feels so cold and you find yourself walking down the wrong side of the road. Oh 

G 
I can't lie, you're on my mind, stuck inside my head 
         Am7                     D 
I wanna feel your heart beat for me instead, 
G 
I just die so much inside now that you're not there 
         Am7                     D          G 
I wanna feel your heart beat like yesterday 

G 
I never did my best to express how I really felt, 
                Am                                                  Bm7 
And now that I know exactly what I want, you've found somebody else. 
                        Em7          Am                              D 
My world just feels so cold, and you find yourself walking on the wrong side of the road 


G 
I can't lie, you're on my mind, stuck inside my head 
         Am7                     D 
I wanna feel your heart beat for me instead, 
G 
I just die so much inside now that you're not there 
         Am7                     D          G 
I wanna feel your heart beat like yesterday 

Bm7                     Em 
My world just feels so cold 
       Am                                      D 
And I find myself thinking about the things I could have done 
     Am 
And it wounds my soul when you let me know 
     D 
I'm not the only one 

G 
I can't lie, you're on my mind, stuck inside my head 
         Am7                     D 
I wanna feel your heart beat for me instead, 
G 
I just die so much inside now that you're not there 
         Am7                     D          G 
I wanna feel your heart beat like yesterday
