Verse 1:
G D
No matter how many times we've done this
C G
And we've done it so many times
G D
It never does get easier
C C
When it's time to say goodbye
G D
And I wear your memory underneath my shirt
C D
Like an Indian tattoo
Em Am
Crushed by conscience in a mental slide show
D C
And I dream of kissing you
Pre-Chorus:
G Am C D
And it's the sweetest goodbye when I get home
G Am C D
We're gonna sleep all day just you and I
G D C F
And if you never left, you'd never know why
D
You had to go in the first place
C
And I picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet
Chorus:
G C D
The sweetest goodbye
G C D (D held twice as long)
The sweetest goodbye
Verse 2:
G D
Now there's two of you
C G
That I find myself saying goodbye to
G D C F
And at night the three of us are in my head before I sleep
G D
And I know we need the money
C G
Though I hope it doesn't show
G D
Cause whatever I've got coming
C F
Comes to me when we're alone
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
C D
..Every second
C D
Of every minute
Em
Of every hour of every day
Am C
I'm thinking of the things that I can say
C
To make you miss me when I go away
Pre-chorus
Chorus
