C                                            Em
I found a place where I instantly felt I was home
                                   F       Fm
Haven't felt like that since I was 6 years old
    C
And you brought me ice cream and chips on a Sunday
    Em
And we stayed in bed and watched films on a Monday
     F                      Fm
But little did I know, that I'd be the one to go

Chorus:
   C                                  G
If I could I'd go back to Berlin and tell you
                          Am
I'm sorry for hurting the one thing we had
from the start
              F
Apologize to you for playing with your heart
   C                                 E
If I could I'd go back to Berlin and I'd tell
                              Am
you I'm sorry for hurting the one thing we had
           F
from the start
             Am                          F
Apologize to you for playing with your heart,
                       C
for playing with your heart

Now, we walked the streets of Berlin in
the nighttime
And talked about where we'd both be in
ten years' time
That I'd be up on the stage and you'd be
creating a brand new age
And you made a mixtape of songs for my birthday
I listen to them constantly, they're on replay
And I keep on playing in my mind
The way things went down in Berlin at the time

Chorus:
If I could I'd go back to Berlin and tell you
I'm sorry for hurting the one thing we had from
the start
Apologize to you for playing with your heart
If I could I'd go back to Berlin and I'd tell you
I'm sorry for hurting the one thing we had from
the start
Apologize to you for playing with your heart

              Am       Em F
Cause I never meant no harm
        Am        Em F
I never meant no harm
        Am        Em F
I never meant no harm
        Am        Em       F
I never meant no harm, no harm

Chorus:
If I could I'd go back to Berlin and I'd tell you
I'm sorry for hurting the one thing we
had from the start
Apologize to you for playing with your heart
For playing with your heart
