G B Em C/G x2

[verse 1]
G 
I remember the view out the back of the car 
B
Left the front door wide open 
              Em
Maybe it's a sign that we shouldn't be going 
             C/G
I didn't realize it'd be so hard 
        G                         B
You and me, sitting on the trampoline 
                            Em
I think one time we fell asleep 
                                 C/G
Woke up and felt like it'd been weeks 

and now it truly has been 
G              B
(forgive yourself) 

It wasn't meant to be but it's funny how 
Em
Life dealt this cheat 
                      C/G
To someone who could handle it so well 

[chorus]
G                                   B
and while you sleep in the pouring rain 
                               Em
Just know I'll be with you someday 
                               C/G
and I'll have a good one 'til then 

Just like you told me 

G B Em C/G

[verse 2]
  G                                      B
I wish we could’ve played that game sometime
                           Em
I wish we’d talked more online
                           C/G 
I’m glad you liked my picture 

I stuck it up inside my locker
G 
becoming disconnected 

Really puts into perspective 
      B
how important every friend is who makes you wanna live 
    Em                        C/G
and this time it’s okay to cry 

G B Em C/G

-pause-

[brigde]
G
black sweatpants and pasta with ketchup 
           B
When your sister ate the slug it was the grossest thing ever 
    Em
collecting beetles in the garden together 
        C/G
You're welcome anytime in my dreams 

G B Em C/G

[verse 3]
G                          B
Muddy hands and climbing trees 
                              Em
Sink-tall while we brush our teeth 
                             C/G
Striped shirts and hide and seek 
                          G
It's all coming back to me 
                            B
While you sleep on a sunny day 
                               Em
Just know I'll remember you always 
                            C/G
and no matter how much it hurts 
                                  G
It's not goodbye, just see you later 


[chorus]
                                     B
and while you sleep in the pouring rain 
                                Em
Just know I'll be with you someday 
                               C/G
and I'll have a good one 'til then 
                     G
Just like you told me
