C                     C/E
For a while we pretended
                     Am
That we never had to end it
                     Fsus4
But we knew we had to say goodbye
C                         C/E
You were crying at the airport
                               Am
When they finally closed the plane door
                       Fsus4
I could barely hold it all inside

C        C/E        Am
Torn in two, and I know I shouldn't tell you
    F                              C
But I just can't stop thinking of you

Chorus:
G             Am   F
Wherever you are, you, wherever you are
C                              G
Every night I almost call you just to say
                  Am  F
it always will be you,
              C
wherever you are

I could fly a thousand oceans
But there's nothing that compares to what we had
And so I'll walk alone
I wish I didn't have to be gone
Maybe you've already moved on
But the truth is I don't want to know

Torn in two and I know I shouldn't tell you
But I just can't stop thinking of

Chorus

Am                      F           C
You can say we'll be together some day
                G/B
Nothing lasts forever
                   Am
Nothing stays the same
                      F
So why can't I stop feeling this way?

Torn in two and I know I shouldn't tell you
But I just can't stop thinking of

Chorus
