G                       Em 
hate to say i'm glad you called 
                     G              Em 
but you know i always tell the truth 
 G                      Em 
it's been a while and lots of miles 
                    G              Em 
i wouldn't say i have been missing you 

Am               G           D 
the first week i stayed in my bed 
Am               G             D 
that summer went straight to my head 
 Am               G           D             Am             G 
the first year without you i walked like the dead 

G                       Em 
hate to say i'm glad you called 
                         G              Em 
even though it doesn't matter now 
G                          Em 
there was a time i might've cared 
                       G              Em 
but i'm seeing someone else now 

Am               G           D 
i don't have to think very hard 
Am               G           D 
to rewind every frame of my love 
Am               G           D             Am        G 
i never i could never get enough of your stuff 

Am 
look around look around look around 
              Em 
babe, i look around 
Am 
i look around look around look around 
        Em 
babe, i look around 

G                       Em 
hate to say i'm glad you called 
                     G              Em 
but you know i always tell the truth 
 G                      Em 
it's been a while and lots of miles 
                    G              Em 
i wouldn't say i have been missing you 

Am               G           D 
the first week i stayed in my bed 
Am               G             D 
that summer i hurt and i bled 
Am               G           D             Am             G 
the first year without you is hard to forgive
