Intro: C D Em C Em G D D

G              D           Em 
i keep your picture by my bed
     C               Em               G             D
for when i'm feeling sad and i dont know why i would be
G              D          Em
the way your smile is so real
   C                 Em             G        D
i feel like i could start to understand, your grace
C D Em C            Em                 G       D
but i, i dont understand why you're not here with me
C D Em C             Em              G        D
and i, i dont even wanna know where else you'd be

(chorus)
                G               D             Em
cause i have photographs and memories of the times
      C                Em       G      D
when you werent on my mind, and i was alone
             G          D             Em
and i have poetry and drawings of my life,
      C                Em       G        D
when you werent on my side, and i didnt know
              G
just what is love

D Em C Em G D D

G          D            Em
writing moments on the wall
      C              Em            G               D
the different color keeps my mind away from missing you
G            D            Em
and i can't wait to fall asleep
C            Em                   G            D
slip into my dreams where we can dance upon the stars
C D Em C                  Em           G             D
and i, i'll be as patient as a boy in love could ever be
C D Em C                  Em              G           D
and i, i feel like i was real until you were a part of me

(chorus)
                G               D             Em
cause i have photographs and memories of the times
      C                Em       G      D
when you werent on my mind, and i was alone
             G          D             Em
and i have poetry and drawings of my life,
      C                Em       G        D
