 These days, I haven't been sleeping
 Cm
Stayin' up, playing back myself leavin'

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

And realized I loved you in the fall

I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile

So good to me, so right
       Cm       F          F
And how you held me in your arms that September night
          B      Cm
The first time you ever saw me cry

Maybe this is wishful thinkin'
F
 Probably mindless dreaming
  F                    B
But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right
    Cm        B        F
I'd Go back in time and change it, but I can't
      Cm        B       F
So, if the chain is on your door, I understand

♫ Chorus:

But this is me swallowing my pride
