Dm C#m                  F     Em
       The longing is a pain

Dm C#m                  C     Bm
   A heavy pressure on my chest

Dm C#m           F     Em
       It rarely leaves

Dm C#m                      C     Bm
       And my day becomes a quest

[Verse]

Dm C#m                       F     Em
   To try not to think about her

Dm C#m              C       Bm
   And all that she brings

Dm C#m              F         Em
       Forget about her magic

Dm C#m               C       Bm
   All the beautiful things

[Chorus]

A#               C     Am             Dm
Surely there are other things to life

A#             C        Am         Dm
   But I can't think of one single thing

G#              A#
   That matters more

[Verse]

Dm      C#m         F     Em
   Than just to see her

Dm C#m         C     Bm
   just to see her

Dm   C#m           F        Em
        Her smile, Her touch

Dm C#m         C     Bm
   Her smell

Dm       C#m         F     Em
Her laugh

Dm C#m C Bm [Verse]

Dm  C#m                F     Em
      The longing is a friend

Dm C#m            C      Bm
    A way to stay close

Dm  C#m                  F     Em
     And feel like she's here

Dm C#m               C      Bm
   And feel like she knows

Dm       C#m                F             Em
    That when I say I would die for her

Dm          C#m                 C      Bm
   It's not just words I really would

Dm         C#m                    F             Em
    And to make the world a safer place for her

Dm              C#m          C     Bm
    Well, I believe I really could

[Chorus]

A#               C     Am             Dm
Surely there are other things to life

A#             C        Am         Dm
   But I can't think of one single thing

G#              A#
   That matters more

[Verse]

Dm        C#m         F     Em
   just to see her

Dm C#m         C     Bm
   to see her

Dm   C#m           F            Em
        Her tears, Her sorrow

Dm C#m         C     Bm
   Her faults

Dm           C#m     F     Em
Her doubts                   I love them

Dm  C#m C Bm
all
