Intro
Fm G#/C
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
C#
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 1]
Fm
When the morning comes
G#/C
When we see what we've become
C#
In the cold light of day we're a flame in the wind
Not the fire that we've begun
G#/C
Every argument, every word we can't take back
'Cause with the all that has happened
C#
I think that we both know the way that the story ends
[Chorus]
Fm G#/C
Then only for a minute
C#
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
Fm G#/C
I want to raise your spirits
C#
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Fm G#/C

Know that means I'll have to leave

[Verse 2]

When the evening falls
And I'm left there with my thoughts
C#
And the image of you being with someone else
A#m
Well, that's eating me up inside
D# Fm G#/C
But we run our course, we pretended we're okay
C#
Now if we jump together at least we can swim
Far away from the wreck we made
[Chorus]
Fm G#/C
Then only for a minute

I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
