[Intro]
[Cmaj7] [Gmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Gmaj7] [Bm] [Cmaj7] [Gmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Gmaj7] [Bm]
[Cmaj7]I can't wait [Gmaj7]to memorize this day
[Cmaj7]Oh, a picture could not [Gmaj7]contain the way it feels
[Bm]You say, "Live [Cmaj7]in the present"
[Gmaj7]I'm already dreaming [Cmaj7]of how it begins
[Gmaj7]And trying to [Bm]savor the moment
[Cmaj7]But I know the feeling [Gmaj7]will come to an end
[Cmaj7]So I crave, crave to [Gmaj7]do it again, all again
[Bm]Crave, crave, to [Cmaj7]do it again, I
[Gmaj7]Just for a second [Cmaj7]it all felt simple
[Gmaj7]I'm already [Bm]missing it
[Cmaj7]So I crave, crave to [Gmaj7]do it again, all again
[Cmaj7]♪
[Gmaj7]I romanticize even [Bm]the worst of times
[Cmaj7]When all it took to [Gmaj7]make me cry was being alive
[Cmaj7]Look up and [Gmaj7]see a reflection
[Bm]Of someone who never [Cmaj7]gave way to the pain
[Gmaj7]What if I told 'em [Cmaj7]that now that I'm older
[Gmaj7]There isn't a moment [Bm]that I'd wanna change?
[Cmaj7]Now I crave, crave to [Gmaj7]do it again, all again
[Cmaj7]Crave, crave to [Gmaj7]do it again
[Bm]Just for a second, [Cmaj7]it all felt simple
[Gmaj7]I'm already [Cmaj7]missing it
[Gmaj7]So I crave, crave to [Bm]do it again, all again
[Cmaj7]♪
[Gmaj7]Any second, [Cmaj7]feel the present
[Gmaj7]Future and [Bm]the past connecting
[Cmaj7](Past connecting, [Gmaj7]past connecting)
[Cmaj7]Any second, [Gmaj7]feel the present
[Bm]Future and [Cmaj7]the past connecting
[Gmaj7](Past connecting, [Cmaj7]past connecting)
[Gmaj7](Crave)
[Bm]Crave, crave to do it [Cmaj7]again, (to do it) all again
[Gmaj7]Crave, crave to [Cmaj7]do it again, I
[Gmaj7]Just for a second, [Bm]it all felt simple
[Cmaj7]I'm already [Gmaj7]missing it
[Cmaj7]So I crave, crave to [Gmaj7]do it again, all again
