[Verse 1]
             Bb
Is there a mailman
in heaven?
          F
'Cause I need to
send a message
    Gm
In denial when
I hear
           Eb
that dial tone
       Bb
Yeah, left with
possessions from
the
 F
one whom I got
questions
         Gm
Been a while since
I haven't
       Eb
felt alone

[Chorus]
    Gm
And I, I see your
face when
       F
I'm dreamin'
Holdin' on to these
   Eb
feelings I can't
let go
I'm sendin' up a
 Bb
message
All the way to
heaven
I think about you
Gm
more than you
       Eb
could know
So if you get a
  Bb
second to meet
             F
me in the present
            Gm
I'd givе anything
to
           Eb
hold you close
           Bb
Hold you close

[Verse 2]
  Bb
Talkin' all night
long 'cause
you got my
  F
bantеr (It's just
you and me)
        Gm
Yeah, still Do
the same
things but you
never
  Eb
answer (Like
where'd you go?)
Bb
If I could have
another wish I
would call your
 F
name
Never thought that
I'd miss
              Gm
those simple days
I'm tossed by the
waves 'cause I
          Eb
lost my anchor
(Woah)

[Chorus]
    Gm
And I, I see your
face when
       F
I'm dreamin'
Holdin' on to these
   Eb
feelings I can't
let go
I'm sendin' up a
 Bb
message
All the way to
  F
heaven
I think about
    Gm
you more
than you could
 Eb
know
So if you get a
  Bb
second to meet
             F
me in the present
            Gm
I'd givе anything to
           Eb
hold you close
           Bb
Hold you close
