[Verse]
Bb F
Silhouettes on the bedroom walls
Gm F
Memories of alcohol and countless cigarettes
Bb F
It's 3am and he can't close his eyes
Gm F
Watches traffic passing by and will stay there most of the night
[Pre-Chorus}
Gm F
He's counting cars by the window again
Gm F
Losing sleep to stop the world from turning
[Chorus]
Bb F
I've got a feeling that he's been dreaming
Gm
That one day you're coming home
F
He leaves the door unlocked in hope
Bb F
Because he's dreaming that he's got a feeling
Gm
Sometimes lies keep you alive
F
He'll be waiting every night
[Verse]
Bb F
And, he took the mirrors off the bedroom walls
Gm F
Painted pictures in the halls because "you'll come back one day"
Bb F
A broken heart still beats just twice as slow
Gm F
Lost the other half 2 months ago, and since he's never been the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm F
He's counting cars by the window again
[Chorus]
Bb F
I've got a feeling that he's been dreaming
Gm
That one day you're coming home
F
He leaves the door unlocked in hopes
Bb F
Because he's dreaming that he's got a feeling
Gm
Sometimes lies keep you alive
F
He'll be counting cars tonight
[Bridge]
Eb Bb
The window broke, the coldness forced its way into his home
Gm F
He remembered everything and lost the hope he believed in
F
He's a mess in distress, nothings left in his chest
F
Closed his eyes, held his breath
[Outro]
Bb F Gm
And he's dreaming, forever dreaming that he'd protected her that night
F Bb F
So if he could turn back time then he'd drive sober and forever hold her
Gm F Bb
Now he watches cars go by and hope one day he'll see her lights
