Intro

Em7    D  G D/F#


Verse 1
Em7
Practice run
                               D         G D/F#
You're saving up speed for the real thing
Em7
Buckled tight
                                  D     G D/F#
In the backseat of a long ride to healing
Em7
Dried up glue, he’s still on you
           Bm7
And you’re breathing on me
Em7
Honest truth
                         G
It feels a little better than leaving


Chorus
D                 G           D/F#   A
I know I can’t be anything he was to you
A
But I'll try to, try to
D
Nothing like he was
    Em7            Bm7      A
But I know what he meant to you
A
I’ll try to, oh
D
Live up to em’
G        D/F#
Memories proving
         A
You were happier doing
                    D
Anything we like to do
     Em7    Bm7     A
When he was next to you
                   Em7    D  G D/F#
I’ll try to, try to


Verse 2
Em7
Filling shoes
                                    D       G D/F#
And clinging onto you, while you’re sleeping
    Em7
You sobered up
                              D     G D/F#
And had enough of chasing the feelings
Em7
Waking to an empty room
      Bm7
After dreaming of you
Em7
Honest truth
                               G
I don’t know what it really is you’re needing


Chorus
D                 G           D/F#   A
I know I can’t be anything he was to you
A
But I'll try to, try to
D
Nothing like he was
    Em7            Bm7      A
But I know what he meant to you
A
I’ll try to, oh
D
Live up to em’
G        D/F#
Memories proving
         A
You were happier doing
                    D
Anything we like to do
     Em7    Bm7     A
When he was next to you
A
I’ll try to, try to


Interlude
G    Bm7


Bridge
           G
You’re the closest thing
G
To anything
    Bm7
And I know you don’t mean to be rude
          G
By not promising, anything
             Bm7                    C
There's just nothing more you wanna do
              Em7
I’m just wrestling
Em7
Because I think
   Bm7
In my mind you’re not number two
                 Em7            A   G
But it’s nice to be anything at all


Out-Chorus
D                 G           D/F#   A
I know I can’t be anything he was to you
A
But I'll try to, try to
D
Nothing like he was
    Em7            Bm7      A
But I know what he meant to you
A
I’ll try to, oh
D
Live up to em’
G        D/F#
Memories proving
         A
You were happier doing
                    D
Anything we like to do
     Em7    Bm7     A
When he was next to you
A
I’ll try to, try to
