              Verso: 
C          C7M       C9             C7             Fm    F 
  There's only so many songs that I can sing to pass the time 
C         C7M          C9           C7            Fm    F 
  And I'm running out of things to do to get you off my mind 
 
Ponte: 
Em                   Am 
  All I have is this picture in a frame 
D9                    G 
  That I hold close to see your face everyday 
 
 
C             C7M            Am 
  With you is where I'd rather be 
                           Cm 
  But we're stuck where we are 
              Cm7 
  and it's so hard 
            Fm 
  you're so far, this long distance is killing me 
C             C7M              Am 
  I wish that you were here with me 
                           Cm 
  But we're stuck where we are 
              Cm7 
  and it's so hard 
            Fm 
  you're so far, this long distance is killing me

Verso 2: 
C        C7M             C9         C7 
 Now the minutes feel like hours and the hours 
          Fm   F 
 feel like days, While I'm away 
C              C7M          C9          C7    Fm 
 You know right now I can't be home, but I'm coming home soon 
       F 
Coming home soon?
