[Intro]
E Emaj7 A Amaj7 B

[Verse 1]
             E
Baby, let's pack our bags
and head to wherever
Emaj7
Toss these plans out straight t
hrough the door
         Amaj7
Won't you take my hand?,
it won't be forever
Amaj7
I don't have to be the
one you looking for
        E
But I broke my foot,
got lost on a mountain
Emaj7
Fuck my life again, but I'm sure
           Amaj7
That you're not too far behind,
so I'm counting
Amaj7
On you to stay, my heart is sore

[Pre-Chorus]
     A                         Amaj7
Oh, hey, hey, I think I lost my way
                       B
Can you put me back in place? (Ha, ha)

[Chorus]
E                         Emaj7
I know you'd never let me down
                              Amaj7
But will you lift me off the ground?
                    B
Do ya' even know my name?
E                          Emaj7
And even when I'm safe and sound
                      Amaj7
It could always turn around
                         B
But can you remember my face? (Ha, ha)

[Verse 2]
                E
I know you're depressed,
                        Emaj7
and I know that you're stressed
                       Amaj7
And I know that you're lying
to all your friends
                 E
I know that you cry,
                    Emaj7
and I know that you fight
                    Amaj7
And I know that you tried
but it won't end
                  E
So, how would it feel
             Emaj7
if I were to steal
           Amaj7
Your heart away along with this pain
                   E
'Cause you give me butterflies
  Emaj7              Amaj7
and I, I need you to stay
                    A
I know what you're thinking,
you don't wanna say so
                     A
Think I'm catching feeling,
I don't wanna say no
                     B
I like the way your socks look,
you should know I hate to
                  B
Fall for someone new but
I like to think about you

[Chorus]
E                         Emaj7
I know you'd never let me down
                              Amaj7
But will you lift me off the ground?
                    B
Do ya' even know my name?
E                          Emaj7
And even when I'm safe and sound
                      Amaj7
It could always turn around
                         B
But can you remember my face? (Ha, ha)
