[Em] [Am] [Em]Are you sitting at home all alone trying [Am]to fall asleep? [Em]Are you staring a hole through your phone [Am]praying that it rings? [Em]Are you watching a movie that you’ve seen a [Am]thousand times? [Em]Maybe playing some Mayer getting lost in your [Am]favorite lines?

Well, If you’re [C]anything like me, you just might be [D]doing Whatever it takes to drown out the [C]noise, I just wanna [D]hear your voice

And I’m one [G]number away from calling to you, I said I was [D]through, but I’m dying, inside Got my [Em]head in a mess, girl, I confess, I lied when I [C]said, “I’m leaving, I’m not coming back” [G]Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain, [D]but everywhere I go I see your face [Em]In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to [C]say, but I’m [D]still one number away

[Em] [Am] [Em]Are you stuck at a red light with a Marlboro [Am]light on your lips? [Em]Does the smoke in your mirror get clearer [Am]without my kiss? [Em]Are you changing the station replacing our [Am]favorite song? [Em]Maybe it’s a mistake hit the brakes, I’m [Am]moving on

Well, If [C]you’re anything like me, you just might be [D]doing Whatever it takes to outrun [C]the storm, but I’m almost [D]out that door

And I’m one [G]number away from calling to you, I said I was [D]through, but I’m dying, inside Got my [Em]head in a mess, girl, I confess, I lied when I [C]said, “I’m leaving, I’m not coming back” [G]Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain, [D]but everywhere I go I see your face [Em]In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to [C]say, but I’m [D]still one number away

[Em]Will you pick up when I [D]call? Or just forget we [C]loved at all, We don’t have to talk, I just wanna [D]hear your voice

And I’m one [G]number away from calling to you, I said I was [D]through, but I’m dying, inside Got my [Em]head in a mess, girl, I confess, I lied when I [C]said, “I’m leaving, I’m not coming back” [G]Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain, [D]but everywhere I go I see your face [Em]In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to [C]say, but I’m [D]still one number [G]Away a [D]way, [Em]away. [C]Yeah, I’m [D]still one number [Em]away
