I dont wanna talk about the things we've gone through  
                   Am           D  
Though its hurting me  now is history   
                   G                           D/F#

              G                 D/F#  
I was in your arms thinking I belonged there  
                  Am                  D  
I figured it made sense building me a fence  
              G                    D/F#  
Building me a home thinking I'd be strong there  
            Am                   D  
But I was a fool playing by the rules  

                     G

But tell me does she kiss  
               D/F#  
Like I used to kiss you?  
                 Am  
Does it feel the same  
                    D  
When she calls your name?  
               G  
Somewhere deep inside  
                     D/F#  
You must know that I miss you  
                    Am  
But what more can I say?
