   Em                                                        C

1.       I haven't stopped thinking about you,

 

    has it really been this long ?

Em

    Two years and an ocean between us,

          C

    and I don’t know where it all went wrong.

Em

    I know I coulda kissed you harder,

C

    and, yeah, you coulda followed through,

Em

    shoulda talked a little bit softer,

            C

    but we meant every "I love you".

         D                                                C

    I don't know what this is or what it isn't,

          D                                                   C

    but it feels like we've got unfinished business.

 

                           G

’Cause we left blood on the tracks, sweat on the saddle,

 D

fire in the hills, a bullet in the barrel,

  Em                                                      C

words never said in a story that didn't end.

                   G

Looks like you're on the mend and I'm on the bottle,

       D

we folded our hands with money on the table,

 Em                                                               C

tried moving on, but I keep coming back again

                              G                              D

to what could've been, what could've been,

                               Em                       C

oh, what could've been, yeah, yeah yeah !

 

   Em

2.     A couple more simple I'm sorrys,

C

    a little less tryna be right,

Em                                                         C

    I wonder how many good mornings we wasted,

 

    cause we didn't say goodnight.

Em

    One touch before we fell asleep,

     C

    just before our love was out of reach

      Em                                                                      C

    coulda been enough, coulda saved us from this loneliness.

 

                            G

’Cause we left blood on the tracks, sweat on the saddle,

 D

fire in the hills, a bullet in the barrel,

  Em                                                      C

words never said in a story that didn't end.

                   G

Looks like you're on the mend and I'm on the bottle,

       D

we folded our hands with money on the table,

 Em                                                               C

tried moving on, but I keep coming back again

                              G                              D

to what could've been, what could've been,

                               Em                C

oh, what could've been, woah, woah !

 

         Em                                           C

+  I thought I'd see it clearly from a distance,

               D                                                    C

    but it still feels like we've got unfinished business.

 

                                      G

’Cause, baby, we left blood on the tracks, sweat on the saddle,

 D

fire in the hills, a bullet in the barrel,

  Em                                                      C

words never said in a story that didn't end.

                         G

Oh, looks like you're on the mend and I'm on the bottle,

       D

we folded our hands with money on the table,

 Em                                                               C

tried moving on, but I keep coming back again, oh,

                              G                                    D

to what could've been, oh, what could've been,

                                Em

                         C                     C
