    G#m7
You open your heart, open your mind
 E
Let somebody in
       G#m7
Take a walk through your past, good and the bad
   E
Decide you can do this again
        G#m7
It's supposed to feel different,
supposed to feel safe
 E
Safe like going home
         G#m7
Yeah but just like sand, it slips
through your hands
             E
Before you know it your faith is gone

Chorus:
       B
Every late night call
      F#/A#
Every morning kiss
        G#m7
All the "I can't live without you"'s
         E
And you say goodbye like this
          B
Don't you understand?
       F#/A#
Do you even care?
       G#m7             F#
If you love me like you said you did
              E
Well, you'd still be standin' here
                       G#m7  E
You think you know somebody yeah

It's all just a blur, the nights are the worst
This bed still smells like you
Wake up from the dreams, catch my breath
It takes everything I've got to move
Yeah, it could've been a long walk talk to fix this
The seas were getting rough, but
I thought we were worth it
Worth the try, worth the fight
Show you what I know, yeah

Chorus

              C#m
Where did you go when the lights came up?
             B/D#
I don't even know you anymore.
            E
Holding a knife if I could see things better.
yeah you've done this before

E          F#    G#m
Think you know, mmmm
                             F#
Yeah, you think you know somebody, mmmm
E                                     F#
You think you know, you think you know
                                   G#m
You think you know, you think you know
           F#/A#
Think you know

Chorus:
Every late night call, every morning kiss
All the "I can't live without you's"
And you say goodbye like this
Don't you understand? Do you even care?
If you love me like you said you did
You'd still be standing here
You think you know somebody

You think you know somebody, yeah, ah, yeah
You think you know, you think you know
You think you know somebody, yeah
You think you know, you think you know
You think you know somebody
(Think you know, you think you know,
think you know somebody, you think you know,
you think you know, you think you know somebody)
You never know, you never know
