A few more notes, there are little hammer-ons she does on C, Am, and G during the
verses. If you listen to the song they're rather prominent. All you've got to do
is unfret that specific string (for C and A it's the D string and for G it's the A
string) and hammer back on in eighth notes. Another thing, during the verses
there's this little chromatic line that moves up a fret from the G chord to the G
note, then rests on Am. All you have to do is move your finger up the E string
from fret 3 to fret 4 on beats 1 and 3 before making the switch.
(Intro) C w/ hammer-ons x4
(Verse 1)
I forgot what it felt like to feel so alive
So I'm packing my suitcase and changing my mind
I forgot what it's like to look the things you want right between the eyes
It's never been so hard to say goodbye
I'm back to the basics and waiting for signs
I'm praying for patience and falling behind
It's not the way I meant to be, it's just how I'm designed
I get so tired of running out of time
(Chorus)
I'm missing out on all the places I could go
The people I could know, the nights so not alone
We'll never make it and it wasn't meant to be
But I'll wait if youll wait for me
(Verse 2)
I'm trying to remember your face in my hands
I wanted adventure, you met my demands
I told myself the day I left, I want it but I can't
I fell for something far away again
I guess that it's pointless, but I mean what I say
I never expected through all this time that I could be okay
Yeah, all the things you do to me, the promise and the pain
I wish with all my heart that I could stay
(Chorus)
(Verse Relapse into Bridge)
I forgot what it felt like to feel so alive
So I'm packing my suitcase and changing my mind
I forgot what it's like to look the things you want right between the eyes
And say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
(Chorus)
I'm missing out on all the places I could go
The people I could know, the nights so not alone
We'll never make it and it wasn't meant to be
But I'll wait if youll wait for me
But I'll wait if youll wait for me
