This is how I play the song. I don't do any picking or anything close to what Tim (the
player who played guitar on their first album) does, picking wise. But these are the
he is picking through and I just strum the chords. This song is a waltz, in 3/4 so the
pattern is a little tricky at first. I play down, down, up, up. It's hard to explain
most of the time in this song you play the chord two measures long. So, technically the
could be in 6/8 which is counted exactly the same but the measures are doubled. None of
ever really made sense to me, but 3/4 and 6/8 are counted the same for the most part. I
some of that made some sense :D I'm sorry I'm not good at explaining strumming
or keeping time. But it makes sense in my head, just not in words I guess…sorry. I guess
can just figure out the strumming to what you think is good…I'll shut up now…

Intro:
Verse
Waking up without you
It doesn't feel right
To sleep with only memories
It's harder every night
Sometimes I think I can feel you breathing on my neck
Pre Chorus
Tonight I'm reaching out to the stars
I think that he owes me a favor
It doesn't matter where you are
I'll hold you again
Chorus
I wish I could hear your voice
Don't leave me alone in this bed
I wish I could touch you once more
Don't leave me alone in this bed
Not tonight, not tomorrow
Verse
I've got the feeling that this will never cease
Living in these pictures
It never comes with ease
I swear that if I could make this right
You'd be back by now
Pre Chorus
Tonight I'm screaming out to the stars
He knows he owes me a favor
It doesn't matter where you are
You'll be mine again
Chorus
I wish I could hear your voice
Don't leave me alone in this bed
I wish I could touch you once more
Don't leave me alone in this bed
Bridge
What about the plans that we had
We'd been crazy not to go
Meet me in capeside
Chorus
I wish I could hear your voice
Don't leave me alone in this bed
I wish I could touch you once more
Don't leave me alone in this bed
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone in this bed
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone in this bed
