 E        G#m B            F#            E     G#m
Headphones in, I'm walking by the hotel bar on fifth
B             F#                E   G#m
Where we got drunk and had that argument
    B         F#           E   G#m   B F#
The one that meant we had nothing left

I'm a mess, I go to sleep with my phone on my chest
Just in case you send one more late-night text
The one that says, "Let's forgive and forget"

 F#
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me
      E        G#m         B   F#
In a half-made bed, waking up alone
       E       G#m
When I open my eyes
 B                           F#
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me

When it's 2 AM, I'm stumbling home
In the back of my mind
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me

Chorus:
E       G#m
At the same time
        B    F#
At the same time
At the same time
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me
At the same time
At the same time
At the same time

Can't catch my breath
I'm passing by the place where we first met
My heart feels like it's jumping from my chest
See these silhouettes of things we've regret

Somehow I know you'll be thinking of me on your wedding day
Just before it starts
In the back of your heart
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me
If the years go by, but we've not moved on
Though we're a million miles
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me

Chorus:
At the same time
At the same time
At the same time
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me
At the same time
At the same time
The same time

We'd be wonderin' all our lives
If we didn't make it right
Or am I mad to think we'd have ever made it? (Yeah)
And no matter who I'm with
There's a part of me that's still, still in love with you
And don't know how to take it
'Cause somehow I know you'll be thinking of me

When we're old and grey, and we've both moved on
It's the end of our lives
But somehow I know that you're thinking of me
Underneath the stars, in a lonely sky
'Til the day I die
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me

Chorus:
At the same time
At the same time
At the same time
Somehow I know that you're thinking of me
At the same time
At the same time
The same time
