[Verse]

           D
Loving can hurt
           Bm
Loving can hurt sometimes
             A        
But it's the only thing 
            G
That I know

             D
When it gets hard
              
You know it can 

    Bm
Get hard sometimes 

          A               
It is the only thing that 
                  G
makes us feel alive
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Bm                      G
We keep this love in a photograph
D                       A
We make these memories for ourselves
          Bm
Where our eyes are never closing
     G
Our hearts were never broken
     D                         A
And times forever frozen still
 
[Chorus]

           D
So you can keep me inside 

The pocket of your

A
Ripped jeans holding 

Me closer till our

Bm                  
Eyes meet, you won't 
          G
Ever be alone

                         D
Wait for me to come home
 
[Verse]

            D
Loving can heal

           Bm
Loving can mend your soul

             A         
And it's the only thing 

            G
That I know

                    D
I swear it will get easier

                  
remember that with 
        Bm
Every piece of ya

             A                       
It is the only thing 

We take with us 
           G
When we die
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Bm                      G
We keep this love in a photograph

D                       A
We make these memories for ourselves

          Bm
Where our eyes are never closing

     G
Our hearts were never broken

     D                      A
And times forever frozen still
 

[Chorus]

           D
So you can keep me inside 

The pocket of your

A
Ripped jeans holding me

 Closer till our

Bm                  
Eyes meet, you won't 
            G
Ever be alone
 
[Bridge]

           D
And if you hurt me that's 

Okay baby, only

A
Words bleed inside 

These pages you just

Bm                   
Hold me, and I won't
            G
 Ever let you go
 
[Interlude]

                     Bm
Wait for me to come home
                     G
Wait for me to come home
                     D
Wait for me to come home
                     A
Wait for me to come home
 
[Outro]
           D
Oh you can fit me,

 Inside the necklace

 You got when you were

A
16 next to your heartbeat where I 
Bm                     
Should be, keep it deep 

              G
Within your soul.

           D
And if you hurt me that's 

Okay baby only 

A
Words bleed inside

These pages you just

Bm                       
Hold me and I won't 
            G
Ever let you go.

          D
When I'm away 

I will remember how you

A                   
Kissed me under the 
                   Bm
Lamp post back on sixth street 

                    
Hearing you whisper 
             G
Through the phone,

G N.C.
Wait for me to come home.
