Photograph

         E                 
Loving can hurt;
           C#m
loving can hurt sometimes,
             B9                A9
But it’s the only thing that I know.
                 E
And when it gets hard,
                    C#m
You know it can get hard sometimes,
          B9                A9
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive.

C#m                         A9
We keep this love in a photograph,
E                          B9
We made these memories for ourselves,
          C#m          
Where our eyes are never closing,
A9
Hearts are never broken
    E                        B9
And time’s forever frozen still.

Chorus:
                E
     So you can keep me
                               B9 
     Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans,
                                C#m
     Holding me closer ’til our eyes meet.
                        A9
     You won’t ever be alone.
                       E
     Wait for me to come home.

Instrumental:

           E              
Loving can heal;
       C#m
loving can mend your soul
           B    Bsus4      B             A
And is the only thing that I know, know.
                    E
I swear it will get easier,
                            C#m
Remember that with every piece of you,
                  B    Bsus4         B                Aadd9
Hmm, and it’s the only thing we take with us when we die.

   C#m                              Aadd9
Hmm, we keep this love in this photograph,
E                          B
We made these memories for ourselves,
          C#m
Where our eyes are never closing,
A6
Hearts were never broken
    E                        B
And time’s forever frozen still.

Chorus:
                E
     So you can keep me
                               Bsus4  B
     Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans,
                                C#m
     Holding me closer ’til our eyes meet.
                        A     Aadd9
     You won’t ever be alone.

                E
     And if you hurt me,
                                   Bsus4 B
     Well, that’s okay, baby, only words bleed.
                                 C#m
     Inside these pages you just hold me.
                              A
     And I won’t ever let you go.

     Aadd9               C#m
     Wait for me to come home,

     Wait for me to come home,
                         Bsus4 B
     Wait for me to come home.

                 E
     Oh, you can fit me
                Eadd11       E                 Bsus4 B
     Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen.
     B7                B6           C#m    C#madd11
     Next to your heartbeat where I should be,
     C#madd13- C#m            A     Amaj
     Keep it deep within your soul.

                E
     And if you hurt me,

     Well, that’s okay, baby, only words bleed.

     And I won’t ever let you go.

     Aadd11+   E
     When I’m away,
                             B6  B     Bsus4
     I will remember how you kissed me
     B6        B                 C#m
     Under the lamppost, back on Sixth street.
                 C#madd13- C#m       Aadd9
     Hearing you whisper through the phone,
     “Wait for me to come home.”
