       D              A        C#m
There was a day when you were mine
   D               A      E
I told you that I needed time
    D                 A     C#m
To see the world and go be free
     D              A       E
To know if we were meant to be

         Bm
It's my crime crime crime
         F#m
We lost time time time
               D         Bm
Are you still mine mine mine
                    E
Now that I see the light

Chorus:
                    D     A C#m
So baby what's the deal, deal
                          D    A  E
Please tell me what you feel, feel
                     D    A C#m
Are we too hurt to heal, heal
                           D     A   E
Let's get back to what is real, real yeah

The time I lived with someone else
It was not a home it was just a house
And though you were hurt I was running free
You never turned your back on me

Its my crime crime crime
And I'll do time, this hard time
Till you're mine mine mine
I pray you see the light

Chorus

                     C#m     D
'Coz girl your love defines me
                     C#m    D
And then your life reminds me
                         C#m   F#m
That there's no place to find me
                 G     E
If I'm not with you, yeah

Chorus

'Coz when you started crying crying yeah
Inside I felt like dying baby for you
You're not to hurt to heal heal
Lets get back to what is real real yeah
