+Intro = G
+G
+ We took a weekend, drove to Provo
+C                               -Walk- G
+ The snow was white and fluffy
+G
+ But a weekend in Utah won't fix what's wrong with us
+C
+ And the grey sky was vast and real cryptic above me
+---
+    D             C                        C  -Walk- G
+ I wanted you, to love me like you used to do
+---
+G
+ We took 2 weeks in the Bahamas
+C
+ Went out dancing every night
+G
+ Tried to fight the creeping sense of dread with temporal things
+C                                D
+ Most of the time I guess I felt alright
+---
+D      C        D     G                         C -Walk- G
+ But I wanted you, to love me like you used to do
+G                   C
+ But you cannot run, And you cannot hide
+G                                       C                D       G
+ From the wreck we've made of our house, And the mess inside
+---
+G
+ We went down to New Orleans
+C
+ One weekend in the Spring
+G
+ Looked hard for what we'd lost
+        C                           D
+ It was painful to admit it, but we couldn't find a thing
+---
+D      C        D     G                         C -Walk- G
+ And I wanted you, to love me like you used to do
+---
+G
+ Went to New York City in September
+        C
+ Took a train out of Manhattan, to the Grand Army stop
+            G
+ Found that bench we'd sat together on a thousand years ago
+        C                                   D
+ When I felt such love for you I thought my heart was gonna pop
+---
+D      C        D     G                         C -Walk- G   D   G
+ And I wanted you, to love me like you used to do
+G                 C
+ But I cannot run, And I can't hide
+G                                       C                D      G
+ From the wreck we've made of our house, And the mess inside
+---
+Outro: G C G C G C D G C D G

+Doesn't this line go:
+D      G        D     Bm                       C    -Walk- G   D   G
+ And I wanted you, to love me like you used to do
