  			verse 1: 

      C 
I was hoping that you'd stay 
’Cause tonight I wanna stay up late 
I was hoping that you'd say 
That you were feeling lonely just like me 
I'm still hoping that you're happy 
’Cause you know I can barely stand up straight 
I'm still hoping that I can be, everything that you would ask of me 

Pre-Refrão 

       C 
But am I 
All wrong 
       F 
Long gone 
                     C 
Too far from your heart 
               F 
Last year was hard 
I fell apart 

 

C 
I know you don't feel this way but 
F 
I'll try to convince you so 
Am 
If it's lost 
G 
Or if it's fate

I hope you pick up this late

C 
I've been missing how we'd pretend 
Cause tonight I really need a friend 
We pretended we were happy 
Maybe we can try and start it again

But am I 
All wrong

Long gone

Last year was hard 
I fell apart

Oooohâ... 

Am                                        C 
   I never thought that we'd end up like this 
                                 F 
   But the cycling it makes me sick 
                                 C 
   It's a long shot and I can't tell 
                                Am     C 
   another coin in the wishing well 
                           F        C 
   Another coin in a wishing well 

Am                       C 
   Honestly if I'm being honest with myself 
     F  
   I know which way you fell 
              Am 
   You don't love me I can tell 


   C 
I know you don't feel this way but 
F 
I'll try to convince you so 
Am 
If it's lost 
G 
Or if it's fate 
F 
I hope you pick up this late 
C 
I know you don't feel this way but 
F 
I'll try to convince you so 
Am 
If it's lost 
G 
Or if it's fate 
F 
I hope you pick up this late 

C 
I hope you pick up this late 
I hope you pick up this late
