C                    Gadd11/B
 Feels like yesterday

Am                                          Am7/G
 You and I, we were walking around New York City

F                          F              Gadd11    G
 Hand in hand, man, it was so pretty that day

C                                             Gadd11/B
 Standing on the corner in your favorite dress

Am                                                    Am7/G
 I was trying to take our picture, my hair was such a mess

           F
Oh, but we laughed so hard

F         Gadd11   G
 Then you broke my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
         C
I can't stand to see those tears in your eyes

Gadd11/B     Am
We should be dancing like we did that night

Am7/G       F
Give mе the reason to give it onе more shot

         F                  Gadd11    G
And I'll give it all that I got

        C
Oh, I'd hate to lay that weight on your heart

      Gadd11/B    Am
After all that we did to everything that we are

Give me the reason to give it one more try

[Verse 2]
C                           Gadd11/B
'Cause I've got nothing left

Am                                                  Am7/G
 Without your foot on the drum that beats inside my chest

            F
I feel like mirrors and smoke

                             F          Gadd11           G
All of my words are broke, I wanna just throw me in the ocean

                C
It's not that I couldn't see you were in pain

  Gadd11/B      Am
I wish we could talk, maybe no one's to blame

        Am7/G    F
I still want you now, I still need you now

        F        Gadd11    G
I'm not fooling around
[Pre-Chorus]

I can't stand to see those tears in your eyes
