[Intro]
F
I was just calling to say Hi
F
And I had a really long day
A#
And would just love to hear your voice now
A#
Shoot me a call back
[Verse 1]
F
Feeling sentimental when I stop and think about it
F
I remember when I had what I wanted
A#
You were waiting by the lake like you promised
A#
Words are falling from my mouth like a faucet
F
Falling backwards in slow motion to the sound of
F
Your voice on the phone, it gave me good luck
A#
Now you're gone but I'll always have a taste
A#
I can settle for your voice if I can't have your face
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm A#
I was making you a playlist
C
Kings of Leon and Oasis
Dm A#
Tell me how can I make this better for you
[Chorus]

A# F
I wanna be a hero
C Dm
Someone who could give you all their love

F
It feels detrimental that we stop and talk about it
F
We can find out what we both wanted
A#
Doesn't have to be a fight when we talk
A#
But please don't walk away from me
F
Tripping over my own words like a boulder
F
Need someone to lean on like a shoulder
A#
Instead I have my own thoughts in the rains
A#
Wish I could be right back inside your place
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm A#
I was making you a playlist
