Where We Were Before
Intro: (synthesized) G Am C Am G Am C C
Verse:
[G]When we started it was [Am]years ago
We [C]tried so hard to [Am]find our souls
And [G]lose the innoc[Am]ence that won't let [C]go[C]
[G]So we crossed the line and [Am]can't turn back
[C]Happy endings [Am]never last
Cause there's [G]always more to [Am]stories never [C]told[C]
Chorus:
Is [D]this what i've been [Em]waiting for
A [C]life for someone [G]else?
To [D]polish all my [Em]faded dreams and [C]put them on the [C]shelf
Is [D]this what i've been [Em]dreaming of
Cause i'm [C]needing so much [Amaj]more
I'm just[C] trying to get back [D]where were b[G]efore[Am][C][Am][G][Am][C][C]
Verse:
We'd [G]shine so hard for [Am]everyone
'Cause we [C]thought we had for[Am]ever and
A [G]day we never [Am]thought would end this [C]way[C]
With a [G]million mornings [Am]left to come
We [C]never cared for l[Am]osing one
But it's [G]half past my f[Am]orever
And I n[C]eed someone to [C]hold my hand
Chorus:
And you're [D]just what I've been [Em]waiting for
To [C]come and take me [G]in
To [D]grab ahold and [Em]take control and [C]make me whole ag[C]ain
And [D]if you need my [Em]everything
You can [C]take it all and [Amaj]more
Just [C]help me to get back [D]where we were bef[G]ore[Am] [C][C]
Bridge:
[Em]I've grown numb to some things
[C]Hunger for one thing
[Em]It takes me back to where it a[C]ll began it all began
[Em]I know we've grown [C]apart
But every now and t[Amaj]hen
I just [C]close my eyes and [D]here we are a[G]gain[Am][C][Am][G][Am][C][C]
Chorus
And you're[D] just what I've been [Em]waiting for
So [C]come and take me [G]in
[D]Grab ahold and [Em]take control and [C]make me whole my[C] friend
And [D]if you need my e[Em]verything
You can [C]take it all and [Amaj]more
Just [C]help me to get back [D]where we were be[G]for[Am]e[C][Am][G][Am][C][C]
