I know this isn't perfect, but it wasn't tabbed at all and I felt like it should be because it's a beautiful
song. Very straightforward with only 4 chords (at least from what I can hear). The piano adds a few more notes
but it's harder to add those in on guitar.
 
 
[Intro]
D  A  Bm
D  A  Bm
 
 
[Verse 1]
           D            A
They don't know where I was
           Bm                  A           G
They don't know and they can't say whether I should've given up
               D                   A
And they can't feel and they don't see
     Bm             A                   G
Only I can know how thin the walls have grown inside of me
       A           G           A
In the dark, on my own
 
 
[Chorus]
    D     A            Bm      A
But in my dreams I was in your arms
        D        A           Bm        A
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
            D         A         Bm       A
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
      G                 A   D      A      Bm
And I slept there for a lifetime
 
D  A  Bm
 
 
[Verse 2]
        D              A
I don't mind what they say
            Bm             A                   G
'Cause they all pretend to care 'til it's inconvenient to stay
       D                     A
And of course, we just smile morе
           Bm             A                G
If I could help myself, I wouldn't be hеre stretched out on the floor
        A           G           A
And the day gets so long
 
 
[Chorus]
    D     A            Bm      A
But in my dreams I was in your arms
        D        A           Bm        A
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
            D         A         Bm       A
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
      G                 A   D      A      Bm
And I slept there for a lifetime
 
D  A  Bm
 
 
[Bridge]
    Bm             A            G           A
I remember holding hands on the bank of the reservoir
       Bm            A                G                A
And it saddens me to see how far that is from where we are
        Bm           A              G              A
And I'm sorry that I let it end and that it got to me
       G                             A
I just miss the way I see you when I sleep
 
 
[Chorus]
    D     A            Bm      A
But in my dreams I was in your arms
        D        A           Bm        A
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
            D         A         Bm       A
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
      G             A
And I loved you for dear life
 
    D     A            Bm      A
But in my dreams I was in your arms
        D        A           Bm        A
And the lives we lived, they seemed so far
            D         A         Bm       A
And I could feel your heartbeat mix with mine
      G                 A   D      A    Bm
And I slept there for a lifetime
 
D  A  Bm
