[Verse 1]
C
Got a job at a dead-end place,
C
I was happy just gettin' paid.
C
Started smokin' ten years too late,
C
didn't know life could change that way.
[Bridge]
AmGCC
When we met in the bar right when your friends were leavin',
AmGCC
stay 'til last orders, talkin' 'til 3 a.m,
AmGCFF (F)
Asked me to meet you at Bloomsbury Square;
AmGCCCC
Look, baby, I'm already there
[Verse 2]
C
I was thrown by your childish ways,
C
how you'd laugh when I'd make mistakes.
C
How we'd go without sleep for days,
C
ain't no hope in me thinkin' straight.
[Bridge]
AmGCC
Forward five weeks, I'm in your parents' kitchen,
AmGCC
your mom talks a lot and your dad does the dishes.
AmGCF
You tell me that nothin' has ever compared,
AmGCC
well, baby, I'm already there.

[Verse 3]
C
Got a place way too small for two
C
but you said it's enough for you.
C
Found a staircase up to the roof,
C
to this day it's my favorite view.
[Bridge]
AmGCC
'Cause you looked up and finished the beer you were drinkin',
AmGCC
takin' my hand, I could tell what you're thinkin'.
AmGCF
You said, "I love you" for once I'm not scared
AmGCC
'cause, baby, I'm already there.

C
Second summer we spent apart,
C
sleepin' underneath different stars.
AmGCFFF (F)
They all said it'd be really hard.
[Outro]
AmGCC
But I think that distance made our hearts grow fonder,
AmGCC
'cause I called and cried, I can't take any longer.
AmGCFFF
As I look out the window, it's worth it, I swear,
AmGCC
'cause, baby, I'm already there.
AmGCC
Baby, I'm already there,
AmGCDm
mm-hmm, baby, I'm already there,
AmGC
baby, I'm already there.
