Verse 1:
The greatest [D]romance, lightning strike to my heart
We would [G]slow dance, in my [Gm]headlights, in the parking lot
There was [D]no chance of [Dmaj7]ever falling apart
But you've [G]noticed that [Gm]I'm here but I'm so far
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] 'Cause I've been [Gb]running from the [D]sun
And I got nowhere left to [G]hide -Ooh-[Gm]-Ooh-ooh-
Chorus:
[D] Every night I close my eyes
And wish I was still in [G]love
Trying to fight the war with my [Gm]mind
It's gonna kill me to give you [D]up
Darling, this is gonna hurt
No, I won't regret [G]it
'Cause I loved you first
[Gm] But someone will love you better
Verse 2:
Last time I'll [G]hold [D]you, [Dmaj7]just 'cause you need it
Hard to con[G]console you when I [Gm]can't give you reasons
Hate that [D]love can be a thing you lose
There's [Dmaj7]nothing you or I could do
We were fools [G]to fall and it's no[Gm]nobody's fault, no
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] 'Cause I've been [Gb]running from the [D]sun
And I got nowhere left to [G]hide -Ooh-[Gm]-Ooh-ooh-

'Cause I loved you first
[Gm] But someone will love you better
