[Verse 1]
Dmaj7
Been keeping you out of my mind
A/C# A
Until I see you it reminds me
Em
Of all of the times you would meltdown
A Dmaj7
Back then I didn’t know why
A/C#
Now I’m in the same place
A
But this time it’s different
Em
Now we’re just working
A Dmaj7
You’re not my girlfriend
A/C# A Em A Dmaj7
But I know you better than anyone else here
A/C#
Now this is familiar
A
You’re having a meltdown
Em
And nobody else knows why
A Dmaj7
But I know you, don’t I
A/C#
I know what you don’t like
A
The color beige, Halloween
Em
Getting surprised by anything
A Dmaj7
Back then it was a dream
A/C#
Was it all a drеam? Was it even real?
A
Summеrland became real
N.C.
It was too sweet

[Chorus]
Bm D
Play in my mind on repeat
A Em A
How can I fall asleep?
Bm D
I loved you, now you’ll never leave
A Em A
How can I fall asleep now?

[Verse 2]
Dmaj7
So I comforted you when you needed it
A/C#
Gave you the space to be frustrated
A
I know it’s hard, but you’re doin’ fine
Em A
Held me close, apologized
Dmaj7
Said you drank too much, I was not surprised
A/C#
Then you held me tight
A Em A
Well, maybe it’s fine
Dmaj7 A/C#
But you held on
A
Why’d you hold on?
Em A
Weren’t you the one who called it off?

[Chorus]
Bm D
Play in my mind on repeat
A Em A
How can I fall asleep?
Bm D
I loved you, now you’ll never leave
A Em A
I guess it’s never over

Play in my mind on repeat
A Em A
How can I fall asleep?
Bm D
I loved you, now you’ll never leave
A Em A
How can I fall asleep now?

Oh no, oh no no

How can I fall asleep now?

Oh, oh yeah yeah
A Em A
How can I fall asleep now?
