Next to Me Sleeping at Last
Capo 7
[C]
[C] [Em] [F] [C]
[C] [Em] [F] [C]
[C]Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books [Em]
[F]It was misspelled and outside the lines and we loved how it looke[C]d
[C]Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress[Em]
And the [F]holes in my jeans from years of careless[C]ness
I kno[F]w since we've grown, we ache for those memories [Am]
Hone[F]stly, nothing's even compared to you next to[C] me, nex[Em]t to me[C]
[C]When the words came to you for the first time, you knew you were hooked[Em]
And the [F]pride that you felt at the last page of your first b[C]ook
[C]And the bravery I forced when I sang to an audience of th[Em]ree
Well, it [F]took a million wrong notes just to find a single melody a[C]nd key
I know [F]since we've grown we plea for cl[Am]arity
Honestly[F], nothing's ever made sense til you were ne[C]xt to me, next [Em]to me
(On Piano* But Chords Written for Guitar with Capo)
[F]If tim[Dm]e is money[C], then I'll spend [Em]it all for you
[F]I will b[Dm]uy you flowers w[C]ith the minu[Em]tes we outgrew
[F]I'll turn [Dm]hours into garde[C]ns, planted just f[Em]or us to take
[F]I'll be re[Dm]ckless with my days[C], building castles in your name
[F]Since we've grown, we long for [Am]concrete things
[F]Honestly, nothing's felt so sure than when you were next [C]to me, next to m[Em]e
[C] [Em] [F] [C]
[C]So lets cut down the red tape and gather up the pieces of our yout[Em]h
Cause there's no[F]thing in this world we can't fix with some scissors and glue
