Intro: C-Am-Cadd9-Dm-C-Am-G-Dm 

verse 1 
C        Am                 Cadd9    Dm 
  Why is this happening to me 
C                Am 
  And no one can comfort me 
   G           Dm 
Or try to understand 
C      Am 
I keep talking to myself 
    Cadd9        Dm 
And telling them stories about us 
C        Am               G        Dm 
So I can remember all the times we had 


                       C 
You're the song on the radio 
         G 
I see us dancing so slow 
           Am                 G 
I miss you more and more each day 
              C 
I don't wanna say goodbye 
           G 
Just wanna hold you tonight 
        Am                 G 
And I'm proud to wear your name 
              C   Am   Cadd9  Dm 
While you're away 

C-Am-G-Dm 

verse 2 
C    Am                      Cadd9    Dm 
  Is there more I could've done 
C            Am 
  Begged for forgiveness 
     G               Dm 
  Or prayed one more time 
C                    Am 
  Would it bring you here beside me 
           Cadd9      Dm                 C    Am 
  Would it stop these tears from falling down 
            G     Dm 
  Into this empty room 


                       C 
You're the song on the radio 
         G 
I see us dancing so slow 
           Am                 G 
I miss you more and more each day 
              C 
I don't wanna say goodbye 
           G 
Just wanna hold you tonight 
        Am                 G 
And I'm proud to wear your name 
            Am                 G 
You make me proud to wear your name
