[Intro]
G   D


[Verse 1]
G
Time, wish we
could
D
go back in time
Wish that our
 stars were
 G
aligned
Wish that we could
D            A
start again
G
I wish that we'd
           D
spoken our minds
               A
Shared all the parts
        G
that we hide
Wish that we could
D            A
start again


[Pre-Chorus]
          G
How do we get here?
Where do we stand?
            D
You used to love me
               A
for all that I am
             G
Have we just wasted
all of our youth?
           D
All of our dreams
 that
           A
never came true

[Chorus]
             G
We were just kids
 who fell in love
          D
We didn't know
quite
        A
what it was
Sad how we've
G
grown
so far apart
         D
Everything's
          A
 fading out


[Post-Chorus]
G
Littlе by
little
D
Little by
       A
little
G
Littlе by little
         D
Everything's
         A
fading out
A
It's fading out


[Verse 2]
G
We used to laugh,
used to
               D
smile, used to dream
        A
Oh, how I miss that
           G
version of me
Won't you take me
           D
back again?


[Pre-Chorus]
          G
How do we get here?
Where do we stand?
            D
You used to love me
               A
for all that I am
             G
Have we just wasted
all of our youth?
           D
All of our dreams
that
            A
 never came true


[Chorus]
             G
We were just kids
who fell in love
          D
We didn't know
quite
        A
what it was
              G
Sad how we've grown
 so far apart
         D
Everything's fading
  A
out


[Post-Chorus]
Gmaj7
Littlе by little
D                A
Little by little
Gmaj7
Littlе by little
         D
Everything's
         A
fading out

[Outro]
             G
We were just kids
            Gmaj7
who fell in love
          D
We didn't know
quite
        A
what it was
Sad how we've
G
grown
       Gmaj7
so far apart
         D
Everything's
         A
fading out
It's fading out
