[Intro] 
C F F x4
[Verse 1] 
CF This is how the story went
AmG I met someone by accident
FC Who blew me away
FG It blew me away
 
C [ch]G6(sus4)[/ch] It was in the darkest of my days
AmG When you took my sorrow and you took my pain
FC And buried them away
FG You buried them away
 [Chorus] 
DmG I wish I could lay down beside you
CF When the day is done
DmGAm And wake up to your face against the morning sun
DmG But like everything I've ever known
CF You disappear one day
DmGGC So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
 [Bridge] 
C F F
[Verse 2] 
CF You dropped me off at the train station
AmG And put a kiss on top of your head
FC You watched me away
FG You watched me away
C [ch]G6(sus4)[/ch] Then you went on home to your skyscrapers
AmG Neon lights and waiting papers
FC That you call home
FG You call it home
 
DmG I wish I could lay down beside you
CF When the day is done
DmGAm And wake up to your face against the morning sun
DmG But like everything I've ever known
CF You disappear one day
DmGGC So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
 [Bridge]

[Verse 3] 
CF I woke up feeling heavy hearted
AmG I'm going back to where I started
FC The morning rain
FG The morning rain
C [ch]G6(sus4)[/ch] Now though I wish that you were near
AmG That same old road that brought me here
FC Is calling me home
FG Is calling me home
 
DmG I wish I could lay down beside you
CF When the day is done
DmGAm And wake up to your face against the morning sun
DmG But like everything I've ever known
CF You disappear one day
DmGGC So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
DmGGC And I could spend my whole life hiding my heart away
