 Asus2 - x02200
 -  -  -  Aadd9 x2
Oh,  how I've tried  to get  you out of  my head.
And  I lied, broken words  I said.
Never thought  I'd walk  on this street  again.
Standing where it  all began.
Tried  to forget when I left this town,
But  it takes me right back when I come back around.
Retrace  the steps we took on that long summer night.
I'm  back there by your side.
Retrace  the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting  backwards while the stars  are falling.
Oh,  how I find  every subtle  thing screams  your name.
It  reminds  me of places  of times  we shared.
Couldn't live  locked  in these memories.
Now  I'm chained  to my  thoughts again.
And  I tried to forget when I left this town,
But  I'll take you right back if you come back around.
Retrace  the steps we took on that long summer night.
I'm  back there by your side.
Retrace  the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting  backwards while the stars  are falling.
I  need some shelter, I need  some safety.
Photographs,  they haunt me lately.
Chasing  shadows as the evening  takes me.
I'm  still searching, but the picture's fading.
 -  Asus2 -  x2
Retrace  the steps we took on that long summer night.
I'm  back there by your side.
Retrace  the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting  backwards, still counting backwards.
 And no  where else has ever felt like home.
 And I can't  fall asleep when I'm lying here alone.
 I replay  your voice, it's like you're here.
 You move  the earth, but now the  sky is falling.
Retrace  the steps we took on that long summer night.
In  my mind, I'm back by your side.
Retrace  the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting  backwards while the  stars are falling.
 enjoy :)
