[Verse 1]
    Gadd11                    Csus2
The sky is gray, the trees are pink,

            G                  F                C
It's almost spring and I can't wait and I can't think,

               G                 F                  C
The sidewalk's paved with petals like a wedding aisle.
[Verse 2]
         G                 D                  C
I wonder how long it would take to walk eight hundred miles,

          Em    D      G       C
To say "I do, I did, I will, I would",

        Em         D            G            C    D
I'm not sorry, not certain, not perfect, not good,

      G                  G          D               D           C  Cmaj7 C  D
But I love you and every day that I knew and didn't say is lost time,

        G                  G              D                          C   Cmaj7
now I'm knocking down your door cause I'm trying to make up for lost time.
C D7 [Verse 3]
C               G                C
  Wish you were here, wish I was there,

            G               F                   C
I wish that we could have a place that we could share,

         G      D           C
Not only stolen moments in abandoned halls,

      G           D          C
Quiet touch in elevators and bathroom stalls,

      Em      D        G      C
But I will, I would, I did, I do,

        Em             D             G         C     D
For the thrill, for my health, for myself, for you . . . ,

        G                  G          D                           C  Cmaj7 C  D
Cause I love you and every day that I knew and didn't say is lost time,

        G                  G              D                          C   Cmaj7 C  D7
Now I'm knocking down your door cause I'm trying to make up for lost time.
[Verse 4]
G                                D
Nothing lasts forever, but let's see how far we get,

           Em                                  A                    A
So when it comes my turn to lose it, I'll have made the most of it.
[Interlude] G D C Cmaj7 D [Outro]
G                        D                       C
Our formal attire on the floor, in a pile in the morning,

                         D
I will fold it while you get ready for work,

           G
I hear you singing in the shower,

       D
It's a song I showed you years ago,

     C                             D
It's nice to know you listen to it after all this time,

           Em                                D
I put your clothes on your dresser with your 60-day chip,

         C                              D
And your broken gold chain, your unpaid parking ticket,

        G                               D
And the photo that you framed from when you were a kid,

     C                              D
To remember where you came from, as if you could forget

          Em                       D
And your hand-me-down pickup, hula girl on the dash

C                   D
Tape on the bumper, more than one crash

G                                 D
It's always an accident, it could always be worse

C                       D
Scars healing over, the memory hurts

      Em                         D
And I trace them with my finger, touch them with my mouth

        C                           D
And the lines around your eyes, the furrow in your brow

     G                       D
Your face is a language, I'm fluent by now

        C                               D
You can tell me the whole story without saying it outloud....

         G                     D
I notice everything about you, I can't help it,

C                                D
It's not a choice it's been this way since we met,

        Em                 G          C                D
Cause I love you and every day that I knew, and didn't say,

              G             D                 C           D     G
It's a crying shame, it's a crime, a waste of space, lost time . . ..
