Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
GEm
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

When the morning comes

When we see what we've become
In the cold light of day, we're a flame in the wind

Every argument, every word we can't take back
'Cause with all that has happened

I think that we both know the way that this story ends

Then only for a minute
G
I want to change my mind
Em
'Cause this just don't feel right to me

I wanna raise your spirits
G
I want to see you smile but
Em
Know that means I'll have to leave
[Post-ChorusEm
Know that means I'll have to leave

Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
GEm
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
Verse 2Bm
When the evening falls
D
And I'm left there with my thoughts
G
And the image of you being with someone else

Well, it's eating me up inside

But we ran our course, we pretended we're okay
G
Now if we jump together, at least we can swim
Em
Far away from the wreck we made
ChorusBmD
Then only for a minute

I want to change my mind
