[Verse 1]
      C                             GI can still feel your arms wrapped around me
        C                              GBut I’m scared ‘cause I’m not sure you know
          Em           Bm          CThat what happens this fast is not destined to last

     C                       GEveryone in the front row is singing

         Em           Bm      CAnd that sweet melody wraps itself around me
         C           D             GAnd it’s nice but we know it’s not ours

         Em         Bm         CWhen I’m drunk by myself and I miss you like hell
       C              D           GWell I guess that without you I’m stuck

Bm                   Em         G   Those things that she did to you
