 Bm              A
Within a minute I was all packed up
G
I’ve got a ticket to another world
Bm
I don’t wanna go
A               G
I don’t wanna go
Bm                  A
Suddenly words are hard to speak
G
When your thoughts are all I see
Bm                A              G
“Don’t ever leave,” she said to me

         Bm               A
When we both fall asleep, underneath the same sky
G
To the beats of our hearts at the same time
Bm           A        G
So close but so far away
G
(Can you hear me?)

Chorus:
D
She sleeps alone
G
My heart wants to come home
Bm           A
I wish I was, I wish I was
G
Beside you
D
She lies awake
G
Trying to find the words to say
Bm           A
I wish I was, I wish I was
G
Beside you

Another day and I'm somewhere new
I made a promise that I'll come home soon
Bring me back, bring me back to you

When we both wake up underneath the same sun
Time stops, I wish that I could rewind
So close, but so far away

Chorus

A                   G
The pieces of us both
                      Bm
Under every city light
                       Em   D    G   A   D
And the shining as we fade into the night

She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was

Chorus

She lies awake
Beside you
I wish I was, I wish I was
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
