[G]I can’t sleep, [F]I just can’t breathe
[C]When your shadow is [F]all over me, baby
[G]Don’t wanna be a [F]fool in your eyes
[C]Cause what we had was [F]built on lies


And when our [Am]love seems to [G]fade away
[F]Listen to me hear what I [G]say


I don’t wanna [C]feel the way that I [G]do
I just wanna [Am]be right here with [F]you
I don’t wanna [C]see, see us [G]apart
I just [Am]wanna say it straight from my [F]heart, I miss you


[G]What would it take, [F]for you to see?
To [C]make you understand that I [F]always believe
[G]You and I [F]can make it through
And [C]I still know, I can’t get [F]over you


Cause when our [Am]love seems to [G]fade away
[F]Listen to me hear what I [G]say


I don’t wanna [C]feel the way that I [G]do
I just wanna [Am]be right here with [F]you
I don’t wanna [C]see, see us [G]apart
I just [Am]wanna say it straight from my [F]heart
Oh baby, I miss you, I [G]do
