Verse 2:
These days I haven't been sleeping

Staying up playing back myself leaving

When your birthday passed and I didn't call
D D G F# D D D D E F# E F# E C#

Realised I loved you in the fall

And then the cold came

And how you held me in your arms that September night
D D E G F# D A G F# D D E F#
The first time you ever saw me cry

But if we loved again I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't

About Me
These notes can be used to play the song on many instruments including the keyboard, flute, recorder and piano. The piano/keyboard I use is a Casio CTK 240 Electronic keyboard which is basic but works well for beginners. My posts are the letter/alphabetical notes for many popular songs including current pop, rock, nursery rhymes, Disney and some classical pieces. I also have a YouTube channel (Mint Music) where I make videos to assist you in your learning.Please feel free to comment any requests and feedback.
