1. Loving can [D] hurt
Loving can [Bm] hurt sometimes
But it's the [A] only thing that I know [G]
When it gets [D] hard
You know it can get [Bm] hard sometimes
It is the [A] only thing that makes us feel [G] alive
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] We keep this love in a [G] photograph
[D] We made these memories for [A] ourselves
Where our [Bm] eyes are never closing
Our [G] hearts are never broken
And [D] time's forever frozen [A] still
Chorus:
So you can [D] keep me
Inside the pocket of your [A] ripped jeans
Holding me close until our [Bm] eyes meet
You won't ever be [G] alone
Wait for me to come [D] home
2. Loving can [D] heal
Loving can [Bm] mend your soul
And it's the [A] only thing that I know, know [G]
I swear it will get [D] easier
remember that with every [Bm] piece of ya
And it's the [A] only thing we take with us when we [G] die
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] We keep this love in a [G] photograph
[D] We made these memories for [A] ourselves
Where our [Bm] eyes are never closing
Our [G] hearts are never broken
And [D] time's forever frozen [A] still
Chorus:
So you can [D] keep me
Inside the pocket of your [A] ripped jeans
Holding me close until our [Bm] eyes meet
You won't ever be [G] alone
And if you [D] hurt me
That's ok baby, only [A] words bleed
Inside these pages you just [Bm] hold me
And I won't ever let you [G] go
Bridge:
Wait for me to come [Bm] home
Wait for me to come [G] home
Wait for me to come [D] home
Wait for me to come [A] home
Chorus:
Or you can [D] fit me
Inside the necklace you got when you were [A] sixteen
Next to your heart beat where I [Bm] should be
Keep it deep within your [G] soul
And if you [D] hurt me
Well that's ok baby, only [A] words bleed
Inside these pages you just [Bm] hold me
And I won't ever let you [G] go
And when I'm [D] away
I will remember how you [A] kissed me
Under the lamppost back on [Bm] sixth Street
Hearing you whisper through the [G] phone
Wait for me to come [D] home
Loving can [Bm] hurt sometimes
But it's the [A] only thing that I know [G]
When it gets [D] hard
You know it can get [Bm] hard sometimes
It is the [A] only thing that makes us feel [G] alive
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] We keep this love in a [G] photograph
[D] We made these memories for [A] ourselves
Where our [Bm] eyes are never closing
Our [G] hearts are never broken
And [D] time's forever frozen [A] still

Inside the pocket of your [A] ripped jeans
Holding me close until our [Bm] eyes meet
You won't ever be [G] alone
