[Opening]
[D]When will I see you [G]again?
You left with [Bm]no goodbye
Not a [D]single word was [G]said
No [D]final kiss to [D]seal any [G]sins
I had [Bm]no idea of the [D]state we were [G]in

[chorus]
I know I have a [A]fickle heart
And a [A]bitterness
And a [Bm]wandering eye
And a [F#]heaviness in my [A]head

[chorus]
But don’t you [D]remember? [D] [G]
Don’t you [Em]remember? [A] [A] [D]
The reason you loved [D]me [F#m] [G]before
Baby please [Em]remember [A]me [A]once [D]more

[verse 2]
[D]When was the last time that you thought [G]of me?
Or have you [Bm]completely [D]erased me from your [G]memory?
I often [D]think about [F#m]where I went [G]wrong
The more I [Bm]do [D]the less I [G]know

[chorus]
I know I have a [A]fickle heart
And a [A]bitterness
And a [Bm]wandering eye
And a [F#]heaviness in my [A]head

[chorus]
But don’t you [D]remember? [D] [G]
Don’t you [Em]remember? [A] [A] [D]
The reason you loved [D]me [F#m] [G]before
Baby please [Em]remember [A]me [A]once [D]more

[verse 3]
[Bb]Gave you the space so [F]you could breathe
I kept my [C]distance so you would be [G]free
In [Bb]hope that you’d find the [Dm]missing piece
To [Em]bring you back to [A]me

[chorus]
But don’t you [D]remember? [D] [G]
Don’t you [Em]remember? [A] [A] [D]
The reason you loved [D]me [F#m] [G]before
Baby please [Em]remember [A]me [A]once [D]more

[Closing]
Outro
[E]When will I see you [A]again?
