A#                              F
Our knees were touchin' in the back of
the car when they didn't need to
Gm                   D#
But you didn't move yours, and I didn't move mine
A#                            F
Our eyes kept lockin' in the back of
the bar when we didn't mean to
Gm                   D#
But you didn't move yours, and I didn't move mine

A#             F
I know you're goin' home with someone else
Gm          D#
I wish that it was me but it's not
A#             F                   Gm
Can't talk to you so I talk about you when
          D#
I talk to God

Chorus:
    A#         F
I pray, every day
           Gm                      D#
That they break your heart in the nicest way
         A#        F
Or they make a mistake
           Gm             D#
Yeah, the kind that even time can't change
         A#                 F
And you take a few nights, let your tears dry
Gm                     D#
Say it wasn't meant to be
    A#         F
I pray, every day
            Gm            D#
That you'll fall in love, fall in love with me

I shoulda kissed you,
you were next to me on New Year's Eve
But I was scared to mess it up
And every night,
it takes me way too long to fall asleep
I'm wide awake, and it's because

I know you're goin' home with someone else
I wish that it was me, but it's not
Can't talk to you,
so I talk about you when I talk to God

Chorus:
I pray every day
That they break your heart in the nicest way
Or they make a mistake
Yeah, the kind that even time can't change
And you take a few nights, let your tears dry
'Cause it wasn't meant to be
I pray every day
That you fall in love, fall in love

           Gm
Yeah, they lose you trust
        F
So you pack your stuff
                  D#
Yeah, you've been had your fun
         Cm
But you know it's done
        Gm
So you call me up
       F
And I walk you up
           D#
'Cause I'm everything you want

Chorus:
I pray every day
That they break your heart in the nicest way
Or they make a mistake
Yeah, the kind that even time can't change
And you take a few nights, let your tears dry
It wasn't meant to be
I pray every day
That you fall in love with me
