Intro : C G F
C
Take it slow, tell me all
G
How you've grown
F
Just for me, could we all reminisce ?
C G
Better yet, here's a pen, make a list
F
Fill it full with all the things I've missed
G
'cause I can barely drive past the school
Am
Without stopping to think of you
F
And how we used to act a fool
G
But worst of all I wish I called
Am Em
At least a thousand times or more
F
Just to hear what I've been missing
Chorus :
C G
If a picture is all that I have
F
I can picture the times that we won't get back
Am
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
G C
Either way I still wish you were here
G
Don't say everything's meant to be
F
'cause you know it's not what I believe
Am
Can't help but think that it should've been me
G C
Either way I still wish you were here
Interlude : C G {F]}
C
Thinking back on the days
G
Where we all used to say
F
I know anywhere's better than here
C
In the back of the class
G
Where we grew up too fast
F
Living life like there's nothing to fear
G
But the ice on the road
Am
Driving home all alone singing
F
Along to a song from three summers ago
G Am
The one that made you remember it
Em F
Now I'll always remember it
(I'll always remember it)
G C
As the song that your life ended with
Chorus :
G
If a picture is all that I have
F
I can picture the times that we won't get back
Am
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
G C
Either way, I still wish you were here
G
Don't say everything's meant to be
F
'cause you know it's not what I believe
Am
Can't help but think that it should've been me
G Am
Either way, I still wish you were here
F C
And they say you're in a better place
(they say you're in a better place)
Am
But a better place is right here with me
F G
Yeah, they say you're in a better place
(they say you're in a better place)
C
Too bad it's not what I believe
Chorus :
G
'cause a picture is all that I have
F
To remind me that you're never coming back
Am
If I picture it now it just makes me sad
G C
And right now I just wish you were here
G
Don't say everything's meant to be
F
'cause you know it's not what I believe
Am
Can't help but think that it should've been me
G C
In the end I just wish you were here
G
Yeah, they say you're in a better place
(they say you're in a better place)
F
Either way I still wish you were here
'cause they say you're in a better place
Am
(they say you're in a better place)
G C
In the end I just wish you were here
