[Verse]

Bm
I don’t miss the world
G
Not the way it was
F#m         Bm
I can’t get there
 
Try to think of it
G
Always at a loss
F#m         Bm
I can’t get there
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

 
All of your lonesomeness 

kept in your wallet
Em
Nobody notices,
G
baby, you got this
 
 
[Chorus]

Em         F#m
I’ll still be here when you
Bm
come back from space
Em     F#m
I will listen for you
Bm
at the door
 
 
[Verse]

Bm
Take forever off
G
Anytime you want
F#m            Bm
I’ll save your place
 
If anybody asks
     G
I’ll say you’re coming back
F#m                Em
We’ll just have to wait
 
 
[Chorus]

    F#m           Bm
Sometimes I wanna drive
                Em
Around and find you
    F#m             Bm
And act like it’s a random thing
Em       F#m
I always wonder
       Bm
If you ever feel
       Em           F#m    
Like I blew all the chances 
        Bm
of this happening
 

[Verse]

Bm
I’m not over it
G                    Em
Don’t know what it is
F#m         Bm
I can’t get there
 
Something’s wrong with me
G
Like it always is
F#m         Bm
I can’t get there
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

 
All of your lonesomeness 

kept in your wallet
Em
Nobody notices,
G
baby, you got this
Bm
Everything’s orchestrated, 

follow the arrows
      Em
Let’s meet where 

we used to in
G
Alphabet City
 
 
[Chorus]

Em         F#m
I’ll still be here when you
Bm
come back from space
Em     F#m
I will listen for you
Bm
at the door
Em   F#m          
Sometimes I barely 
Bm
recognize this place
Em          F#m     
When you’re with me, 
        Bm
I don’t miss the world
