                   D#m                  G#m
I heard you on the phone, I had you in mind
                 C#
I've been on the run since you walked through the
 F#
hallway
               D#m                 G#m
Heard it all before, I don't even mind
            C#                        F#
I'll do anything, pull me in and I'm far away

             D#m  G#m
You're right there
                          C#                  F#
But I won't say that I'm standin', I'm right here
                  D#m
When I see you, I panic
    G#m                        C#
So scared of the way it might pan out

Chorus:
                                         B
Well, I don't want to say that this was hard,
it was
C#                                D#m
Tryin' not to stay, but that just made it worse
                      B
I've been keepin' my distance
C#                             D#m
I just wanna know what you're thinkin'
                                 B
I just can't explain the way it hurts
                 C#
Now that what we had is gone
                 D#m
I don't have the words
               G#7
I'm so bad at playin' along
           B     C#
Savin' my feelings
                     F#maj7
I've been keepin' my distance

I talked about it last night, thought I was fine
Helped you pack your things,
put your bags in the hallway
Maybe in a past life, problems aside
We could make it home, I'd hear
you when you're callin'

You're right there, yeah
But I won't say that I'm standin', I'm right here
When I see you, I panic
So scared of the way it might pan out

Chorus

B                     C#
I've been feelin' so high on the way down
D#m
Hope I get another chance, 'cause I know I wouldn't
B                     C#                      D#m
Wouldn't let you pass by, wouldn't even think twice
                                            B
Let you out of my mind, I don't even know why
                     C#
I've been feelin' so high on the way down
D#m                 G#7
Said you treated me bad, 'cause you know I couldn't
B    C#              F#maj7
Mmm, you know I couldn't

Chorus:
Well, I don't want to say that this was all it was
Tryin' not to stay, but that just made it worse
I've been keepin' my distance
I just wanna know what you're thinkin'
I just can't explain the way it hurts
Now that what we had is gone
I don't have the words
I'm so bad at playin' along
Savin' my feelings
I've been keepin' my distance
