[Verse 1]
Cadd9              G6/B
 I hear the clock, it's six a.m.

C                 Em
 Feel so far from where I've been

Cadd9                G6/B
 Got my eggs, and my pancakes too

C                     D
 Got the maple syrup, everything but you

Cadd9                         G6/B
 I break the yolks and make a smiley face

C                      Em
 I kinda like it in my brand new place

           Cadd9                                    G6/B
I wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave the keys in the door

C                            D
 Never put wet towels on the floor anymore, 'cause...
[Chorus]
C            D
 Dreams last so long

G6/B  Gsus2/F#     Em
 Even after you're gone

C            D
 I know that you love me

    G6/B Gsus2/F# Em
And soon you will see

         C
You were meant for me

    D                Em
And I was meant for... you

[Verse 2]
Cadd9                      G6/B
 I called my mama, she was out for a walk

C                                Em
Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk

     Cadd9                     G6/B
So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news

     C                       D
More hearts being broken, or people being used

Cadd9                 G6/B
Put on my coat in the pouring rain

C                     Em
 Saw a movie, it just wasn't the same

Cadd9         G6/B
 It was happy, I was sad

C                    D
 It made me miss you oh so bad, 'cause...
[Chorus]
C                D
 Dreams last for so long

G6/B  Gsus2/F#     Em
 Even after you're gone

C            D
 I know that you love me

    G6/B Gsus2/F# Em
And soon you will see

         C
You were meant for me

    D                Em
And I was meant for... you
[Bridge]
  Am7                       D
I go 'bout my business, I'm doin' fine

         Bm                D          Csus2  Csus2/B
Besides, what'd I say if I had you on the line

Am7                      D
 Same old story, not much else to say

Bm                       Em
 Hearts are broken every day, Oh...
[Interlude] Cadd9 G6/B C Em [Verse 3]
Cadd9             G6/B
 I brush my teeth, put the cap back on

C                         D               Em
 I know ya hate it when I leave the light on

      Cadd9              G6/B
So, I pick a book up and turn the sheets down

    C                        D
And take a deep breath and a good look around

Cadd9               G6/B
 Put on my pj's and hop into bed

C                          Em
 I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead but

  Cadd9                     G6/B
I try and tell myself it'll be all right

  C                       D
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight.
[Chorus]
C                D
 Dreams last for so long

G6/B  Gsus2/F#      Em
 Even after you're... gone

C       D
 I know... I know that you love me

    G6/B        Gsus2/F# Em
And soon I know you will see

         C
You were meant for me

    D                Em
And I was meant for... you
[Outro]
               C
Yeah, you were meant for me

    D     N.C.
and I was meant for...

  Cadd9   G6/B   C Csus2/B C/D Em
You...
