  F#
Remember the day when we've given up,
          B
when you told me I didn't give you enough.
    C#
And all of your friends were saying
         B
I'll be leaving you,
       F#
She's lying in bed with my t-shirt on,
       B
just thinking how I went about it wrong,
     C#
this isn't the stain of a red wine,
      B
I'm bleeding love.

C#
Please believe me,
don't you see the things you mean to me?
       B
Oh, I love you, I love you,
I love, I love, I love Olivia.

Chorus:
   D#m             C#              B
I live for you, I long for you, Olivia.
          D#m           C#                    B
I've been idolizing the light in your eyes, Olivia.
  D#m             C#              B
I live for you, I long for you, Olivia.
             F# C#m7              B Bm
Don't let me go,    don't let me go.

Say what you're feelin' and say it now
'Cause I got the feelin' you're walkin' out
And time is irrelevant
when I've not been seeing ya
The consequences of falling out
That's something I'm having nightmares about
And these are the reasons
I'm cryin' out to be with ya

Please believe me,
don't you see the things you mean to me?
Oh, I love you, I love you,
I love, I love, I love Olivia.

Chorus

F#              B             C#               B
When you go and I'm alone you live in my imagination,
F#              B           C#                    B
Summertime and butterflies, all belong to your creation.
  F#             B           C#     B
I love you, it's all I do. I love you

Chorus:
   D#m             C#              B
I live for you, I long for you, Olivia.
          D#m           C#                    B
I've been idolizing the light in your eyes, Olivia.
  D#m             C#              B
I live for you, I long for you, Olivia.
             D#m C# B              D#m C# B
Don't let me go,     don't let me go.
             D#m C# B F#
Don't let me go.
