Verse 
Em7 
How did you find there was somebody 
              D 
More than you want me I never understood 
C 
Maybe I have never had you  
G           D              C  
I have been lonely for you lately 
        D            G 
I can't wait another day 
            D               C 
And when you let me get you close to me 
    D 
You run and leave me 
 
 
G          D        Em 
Paying the price of love 
     C          G        D   C D G D 
The start of my end over you 
G                D         Em 
When you're doin' it for someone 
C               G 
Who'll never be free 
       C                      C C G 
Now is all there will ever be

       All the nights I dream about you 
 
Verse 
Em7 
Deep in the dark of the night 
          D 
I'm a man on a mission but safer with you home 
C 
Never would I make you sorry 
G            D          C 
You are the only drug I crave 
D                        G 
And I've been saving everyday 
         D            C 
I held it all inside, I pray 
          D 
You don't forget you got me

You'll never be free

That emotion is always replaying 
 
Bridge 
A 
You know the strongest heart 
A 
Is broken when it falls 
A 
You turn and walk away 
A 
And let it die 
A 
I got this picture in my head 
A 
Of you in someone else's bed 
A 
And I am torn apart 
A 
I'm torn apart inside

That emotion is always replaying
