D                   Bm
Baby, I found a new piece of you
D                     Bm
Buried inside me this afternoon
G                    A                     D
Next to the memories I should've put in a box

Baby, there must be a piece of me
Still can't believe that we're history
I called you my girlfriend again,
and I know I should stop

    Em                 A
But I can't face the truth

Chorus:
               G                D
Don't you know I can't let you go
             Bm                             A
So I just pretend like you're still coming home?
               G                      D
I left on the light and unlocked the door
                   Bm                          A
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor
                    Em                     G
I know that you're gone and everything's changed
              D         A          Bm
So, why do I love you exactly the same?
                 G     Gm
It doesn't make sense, us in the past tense

Baby, I think there's a part of me
That wishes I could take back everything
Go back in time and erase the first night
that we met

But I can't face the truth

Chorus:
Don't you know I can't let you go
So I just pretend like you're still coming home?
I left on the light and unlocked the door
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor
I know that you're gone and everything's changed
So, why do I love you exactly the same?
It doesn't make sense, us in the past tense

  G             D
(Do, do-do-do, do)
           Bm
(Do-do-do, do)
               A
(Do-do-do, do) Us in the past tense
  G            D
(Do, do-do-do, do)
           Bm
(Do-do-do, do)
            A
(Do-do-do, do)

Chorus:
Don't you know I can't let you go
So I just pretend like you're still coming home?
I left on the light and unlocked the door
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor
I know that you're gone and everything's changed
So, why do I love you exactly the same?
It doesn't make sense, us in the past tense
