G            F#m  Em              F#m   G 
I can't write one song that's not about you 
           F#m  Em           F#m   G 
Can't drink without thinking about you 
     F#m  Em            F#m 
Is it too late to tell you that 
G                F#m          E7sus2 
Everything means nothing if I can't have you

Verse: 1 
G                      F#m      Bm 
  I'm in Toronto and I got this view 
      Em                    Em    F#m 
But I might as well be in a hotel room, yeah 
G                              F#m   Bm 
  It doesn't matter 'cause I'm so consumed 
         Em                    Em         F#m 
Spending all my nights reading texts from you 


Pre-Chorus: 
G               F#m        Bm 
Oh, I'm good at keeping my distance 
  Em                   Em          F#m 
I know that you're the feeling I'm missing 
  G             F#m       Bm 
You know that I hate to admit it 
    G                F#m          E7sus2 
But everything means nothing if I can't have you

Verse: 2 
G                      F#m      Bm 
  I'm so sorry that my timing's off 
      Em                           Em    F#m 
But I can't move on if we're still gonna talk 
G                       F#m      Bm 
  Is it wrong for me to not want half? 
       Em                  Em        F#m 
I want all of you, all the strings attached 


Pre-Chorus: 
G               F#m        Bm 
Oh, I'm good at keeping my distance 
  Em                   Em          F#m 
I know that you're the feeling I'm missing
