No Capo
[G] I know that you [Cadd9] like me

[D/F#] Feelin' like a face in the [G] crowd [Cadd9]
I'm reachin' for [Em] you, [D/F#] terrified
'Cause [G] you could be the one that I [Cadd9] love
I [Em] could be the one that you [D/F#] dream of
[G] Message in a bottle is [Cadd9] all I can do
[Em] Standin' here, hopin' it [D/F#] gets to you

Look how you've [D/F#] made me, made me
But [G] time moves [Cadd9] faster
Replaying your [Em] laughter
[D/F#] Disaster
'Cause now [G]
