INTRO: G Gsus4 

G            C              F       D 
With every breath we grow further apart 
     G               C                  F  D 
Sometimes I wish we didn't know how to talk 
G          C            F 
And as we sort out the who said you said 
D 
Who said I said 
G                     C                F     D 
I only wish I came a little better prepared 
F  D   F                 D 
5 am, these things will pass 
  F                    D 
Tomorrow won't be our last 


CHORUS: 
G             A7                C 
Funny how I’m always here with you 
                   G                    A7                   C 
I never meant to change your world or change your point of view 
                G               A7             C 
I only want to hold you when I feel a little blue 
                     G           F        C (w/ sus4 & sus2) 
I hope you know I’ll always be there for you 


I know by now I should be sound asleep 
But my mind won't let me it feels like it's going to explode 
I'll say that you're right 
If you just say that I'm right 
Let's hit the hay and call this case closed 

5 am things get so strange 
Tomorrow's a brand new day
