[Intro]
N.C.
(I'm forever dreaming
N.C.
What we could've been
I'm forever dreaming)

[Verse 1]
A                    A                         A        E
I am amazed by your use of the phrase "We were meant to be"
       A                             A               A           E
Cause what does it mean when you're just 17 and the heart can't see
    A                      A                         A        E
But I need your face so I moved in your place and a year goes by
    F#m                    F#m                        F#m      E
But our little dream was a treacherous stream now I'm high and dry

[Pre-chorus]
A               A
Broke my body. Kung fu/karate
A                  Bm
Threw my shit out into the lobby
A                 A
I can't change if you can't change
       A                      E
But we both know things can't stay the same
        D                      E
So I'll take another drive and wonder...

[Chorus]
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m         E
I'm forever dreaming
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m         E
I'm forever dreaming
     A              D          F#m   E
Sometimes you have got to give up to win
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m          E
I'm forever dreaming

[Verse 2]
A                        A                     A        E
Now I am a waste. I'm a flowerless vase never leave the bed
    A                A                    A        E
And I realize I was my own demise, when I pull the thread
     A                     A                      A       E
So what are my chances my right brain romances, a boy can dream
    F#m                 F#m                       F#m      E
I'm all outa luck but I don't give a fuck WE WERE MEANT TO BE

[Pre-chorus]
A             A
Work my body. Yoga/Pilates
A              Bm
Get my shit together then I'll be
A             A                        A
Everything to get you back and if it's our last scene
      E
We'll fade to black
         D                      E
And I'll take another drive and wonder...

[Chorus]
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m         E
I'm forever dreaming
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m         E
I'm forever dreaming
     A              D          F#m   E
Sometimes you have got to give up to win
                 A  D
What we could've been
F#m          E
I'm forever dreaming

[Bridge]
A              D
Holding on but I should let it go
F#m                E
Gotta release what I can't control
A                   D
You can find me the way the wind blows
   F#m           E
Oh whoo oh oh oh whoo oh oh

A              D
Holding on but I should let it go
F#m                E
Gotta release what I can't control
A                   D
You can find me the way the wind blows
   F#m           E
Oh whoo oh oh oh whoo oh oh

A              D
Holding on but I should let it go
F#m                E
Gotta release what I can't control
A                   D
You can find me the way the wind blows
   F#m           E
Oh whoo oh oh oh whoo oh oh

A              D
Holding on but I should let it go
F#m                E
Gotta release what I can't control
A                   D
You can find me the way the wind blows
   F#m           E
Oh whoo oh oh oh whoo oh oh

[Outro]
A  D  A  D
