A E F#m D

[Verse 1]

A
Rainy days
E
In that cold apartment
F#m
That’s where it started
D
And there was no stopping it
A
In that place
E
We fell apart in
F#m
That’s where my heart lives
D
And there ain’t no stopping it
F#m E D
As I watch you fade away

[Chorus]

A
I wish I knew
E
How to hold you
F#m
And say the words
D
I never told you
A
I wish I knew
E
How to listen
F#m
And see the signs
D
That I was missing
A E
I know that it’s late and I took too long
F#m
I just wanna say
D
That I know I was wrong
A E
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
F#m D
I wish I knew. . .

[Verse 2]

A
I’m hurting bad
E
The same old story
F#m
When a broken heart beats
D
Yeah there ain’t no stopping it
A
But looking back
E
I can’t ignore it
F#m
When tears are falling
D
Yeah there ain’t no stopping them
F#m E D
As I watch you fade away

[Chorus]

A
I wish I knew
E
How to hold you
F#m
And say the words
D
I never told you
A
I wish I knew
E
How to listen
F#m
And see the signs
D
That I was missing
A E
I know that it’s late and I took too long
F#m
I just wanna say
D
That I know I was wrong
A E
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
F#m D
I wish I knew, I wish I knew, how to love you

[Interlude]

I need a minute, I need a minute
D
It is what it is yeah

[Chorus]

A
I wish I knew
E
How to hold you
F#m
And say the words
D
I never told you
A
I wish I knew
E
How to listen
F#m
And see the signs
D
That I was missing
A E
I know that it’s late, you’re already gone
F#m
I just wanna say
D
That I know I was wrong
