[Verse]
 D5        A           D5                   
Hope was written in a note
      A      F#m            E        F#m7                                
Two season ago back when I met you
        E              D5                             
When I met you in the fall
     A               D5                               
The postcard on the wall
       A             F#m                                 
Reads worn out and small
           E            F#m      E              F#m        
"I won't forget you, I won't forget you when I go"
N.C.                                                     
But it never works out like you plan


[Chorus]
                   D5   A  F#m                                   
Well I just wanna find you

So I can take the miles and miles away from you
     F#m7             E                                                 
The miles and miles away from where you are
                      D5   A  F#m                                 
This postcard's to remind you

That I can take the miles and miles away from you

The miles and miles away from where you are

Now it's May
   A                  D5                              
I wish that you had stayed
     A                F#m            E                    
For more than just a day or two I'd tell you

All the things I never got to like the time
     A                    D5                           
We drove all through the night
      A             F#m                                  
Just talking about life
             E           F#m                             
I should've kissed you
             E                 F#m                      
I should've kissed you in the car
              E                   F#m7                      
But it never works out like you plan
