[VERSE]
Cmaj7 Am7
Cars passing by outside sound like crashing waves
Fmaj7sus2
And in a vaguely calming way
C G
It kinda made me wanna stay
Cmaj7 Am7
But the moment passed and quickly I was on my way
Fmaj7sus2
My backpack weighs heavily
C G
Cause I can’t stop collecting memories
[CHORUS]
Cmaj7 Am7
I
Fmaj7sus2
Just stopped by to show you I’m alive
Cmaj7 Am7
I’m
Fmaj7sus2
Ready to leave as soon as I arrive
[POST-CHORUS]
| Cmaj7 | Am7 | Fmaj7sus2 | Fmaj7sus2 |
[VERSE]
Cmaj7 Am7
Running car in the driveway rattles like a thunder storm
Fmaj7sus2
You told me when it rains it pours
C G
You barely recognize me anymore
[CHORUS]
Cmaj7 Am7
And I
Fmaj7sus2
Don’t know how I could possibly reply
Cmaj7 Am7
Cause I
Fmaj7sus2
Cannot change no matter how hard I try
Cmaj7 Am7
I
Fmaj7sus2
Just stopped by to show you I’m alive
Cmaj7 Am7
I’m
Fmaj7sus2
Ready to leave as soon as I arrive
Fmaj7
Arrive
[BRIDGE]
| Cmaj7 | Am7 | Fmaj7 | Fmaj7 |
| Cmaj7 | Am7 | Fmaj7 | Fmaj7 |
[CHORUS]
Cmaj7 Am7
I
Fmaj7sus2
Just stopped by to show you I’m alive
Cmaj7 Am7
I’m
Fmaj7sus2
Ready to leave as soon as I arrive
Cmaj7 Am7
I
Fmaj7sus2
Just stopped by to show you I’m alive
Cmaj7 Am7
I’m
Fmaj7sus2
Ready to leave as soon as I arrive
