D                               A         E
Promises and problems were all left unsaid
D                              A E
Buried away at the back of my bed
  D                              A        E
Close my eyes but every time I try to rest
      D                                         A  E
It’s hard to think clearly, you live inside my head

  D
A minute you’re there, a minute you cared,
            A  E
now you’re gone
 D                                 A    E
It’s so unfair, keeping me from moving on

Chorus:
B         D                A            E
Part of me still wants you, part of me wants to
        B
fall asleep
                     D              A
When we're all alone in your bedroom,
                 E            B
you came like a reoccurring dream
          D             A
Part of me still hates you,
               E                B
how could you love someone and leave?
                   D                  A
When you’re all alone in your bedroom,
              E        A D A
do you ever think of me?

The wasted words you'd tried to breathe were poetry
Living in a memory, walking through a daydream
Sister said, "Be patient, things
aren't what they seem"
But it's hard to think clearly,
you never say what you mean

A minute you're there, a minute you cared,
now you're gone
It's so unfair, keeping me from moving on

Chorus

          G            B            A
Think of me, think of me, think of me – me – me – me
          G            B            A
Think of me, think of me, think of me – me – me – me

Chorus:
Dmaj7     D               A             E
Part of me still wants you, part of me wants to
        Dmaj7
fall asleep
                     D              A
When we're all alone in your bedroom,
                 E            Dmaj7
you came like a reoccurring dream
          D             A
Part of me still hates you,
               E                Dmaj7
how could you love someone and leave?
                                    A
When you’re all alone in your bedroom,
              E        Dmaj7 A E
do you ever think of me?
