Verse 1
              Bbsus2
Do you ever think about me
              Gm7(11)
Do you ever cry yourself to sleep
                      Cm7
In the middle of the night when you awake

Are you calling out for me

Do you ever reminisce

              Cm7
I know it's crazy

How I still can feel your kiss

     It's been 6 months 8 days 12 hours since you went away
        Bbsus2                    Gm7                Dm7 Gm7
     I miss you so much and I don't know what to say
                 Cm7
     I should be over you
         Fsus4                      Bbsus2          Eb6/9
     I should know better but it's just not the case

                       Gm7(11)
Do your friends still tell you what to do
                Cm7
Everytime the phone rings
                    Fsus4 
Do you wish it was me callin you
              Dm7 
Do you still feel the same
        Bb7            Eb6/9 Ddim7
Or has time put out the flame

I miss you, is everything okay

When I can't seem to get you off my  mind
      Ebmaj7      Edim7       Dm7 Gm7       
And where is the good in goodbye

Tell me why..., tell me why...
