Am              G            Em               F
Can't help but wondering if this is the last time that
               F
I'll see your face
                G                Em
Is it tears or just the fucking rain
              F
Wish I could say something
Am              G              Em
Something that doesn't sound insane
           F
But lately I don't trust my brain
          G               Em
You tell me I won't ever change
           F
So I just say nothing

Chorus:
F           G            Em                     F
No matter where I go I'm always gonna want you back
F              G                   Em                     F
No matter how long you're gone I'm always gonna want you back
F      G        Em               F
I know you know I will never get over you
F           G            Em                     F
No matter where I go I'm always gonna want you back
         Am
Want you back

I remember the freckles on your back
And the way that I used to make you laugh
'Cause you know every morning I wake up
Yeah, I still reach for you
I remember the roses on your shirt
When you told me this would never work
You know, even when I say I moved on
Yeah, I still dream for you

Chorus

Am                    G
You know even when I say I've moved on
Em                       F
You know even though I know that you're gone
F                      G               Em F
All I think about is where I went wrong

Am                    G
You know even when I say I moved on
Em                       F
You know even though I know that you're gone
F                      G
All I think about is where I went wrong
Em             F
Yeah I still dream for you

No matter where I go,
I'm always gonna want you back

Chorus:
And no matter where I go
I'm always gonna want you back
(I'm always gonna want you back)
No matter how long you're gone
I'm always gonna want you back
I know you know
I will never get over you
No matter where I go
I'm always gonna want you back, want you back

I'm always gonna want you back, want you back
I'm always gonna want you back, want you back
(Aah-aah, aah-aah)
I'm always gonna want you back, want you back
(Aah-aah, aah-aah)
I'm always gonna want you back, want you back
(Aah-aah, aah-aah)
