Verse: 

C 
 It's 2 am, in your car 
Windows down, you pass my street, the memories start 
You say it's in the past, you drive straight ahead 
You're thinking that I hate you now 'cause you still don't know what I never said 



C 
 I wish you would come back 

 Wish I never hung up the phone like I did 
Am 
 I wish you knew that I'll never forget you as long as I live and I 
F                                 G                               C/G 
 Wish you were right here, right now, it's all good, I wish you would 


 Verse: 

C 
 It's 2 am, in my room 
Am 
 Headlights pass the window pane, and I think of you

Am                                       F                   
 Makes you want to run and hide then it makes you turn right back around
