[Intro]
B E
[Verse 1]
B
Another "almost perfect"
Didn't work, but totally worth it
E
Better to have loved and lost my mind
Than lose the nerve to even try
B
Another conversation
Awkward, but the ice is breaking
E
I've been in some shit relationships
But I've remained an optimist
[Pre-Chorus]
B
It's not a game I'm playing
E
It's not a thrill I'm chasing
B
More like a space I'm saving
E
And I don't even know your name
[Chorus]
B
But if it gets me to you, then it ain't wasted time
E
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
B
Another bad first date (Check)
Another "nothing left to say" (Check)
E
What I mean is, the way I see it
B G#m E
I'm one heartbreak closer to you, you
[Verse 2]
B
Hey baby, can I call you "baby?" Is that okay?
E
I don't even know you, but I can't wait to know you someday
B
Imagine someday when we look back
E C#m
I'll thank my past for giving me my future better half
[Pre-Chorus]
B
I'm sorry for the time it's taking
E
But I'ma make it worth the waiting
B
And all this wrong love that I learned from
E
Was just practice for the right one
[Chorus]
B
But if it gets me to you, then it ain't wasted time
E
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
B
Another just got played (Check)
A shot of bourbon for the pain (Check)
E
What I mean is, the way I see it
B G#m E
I'm one heartbreak closer to you, you
[Bridge]
B
It's kinda strange to miss
Someone I haven't met yet
E
Someone I haven't kissed yet
But I'll go through it all
[Chorus]
B
If it gets me to you, then it ain't wasted time
E
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
B
Another sad goodbye (Check)
E
Another sleepless night (Check)
B
What I mean is, the way I see it
E B G#m E
I'm one heartbreak closer to you, you,
B G#m E
you, you
B
One heartbreak closer to you
