Intro
Em G/B
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
C
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 1]
Em
When the morning comes
G/B
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/B
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]
Em G/B
Then only for a minute
C
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
Em G/B
I want to raise your spirits
C
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Em G/B
C
Know that means I'll have to leave
Em G/B
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
C Am
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 2]
G/B
When the evening falls
And I'm left there with my thoughts
C
And the image of you being with someone else
Am
Well, that's eating me up inside
D Em G/B
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]
Em G/B
Then only for a minute
C
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
Em G/B
I want to raise your spirits

I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Em G/B C

Know that means I'll have to leave
