Prompt / Lyrics
Key: G Major Tempo: ~76 BPM Time Signature: 4/4 --- Chords (Verse & Chorus): G – D – Em – C Chords (Bridge): Em – C – G – D --- Intro: (Piano only – soft, slow, emotional) G – D – Em – C --- Verse 1: G You’re in a different hallway now D Different faces, different crowd Em And I’m still walking through my days C Like your name’s a background sound G We used to share the same routine D Same bells, same time, same air Em Now I don’t know who you’ve become C And that’s the part that’s not fair --- Pre-Chorus: G I don’t see you, don’t run into you D Don’t even get the chance Em To pretend that we’re still something C In a passing glance --- Chorus: G You’re across town, out of reach D But somehow still so close to me Em In every song, in every night C In every “are you doing alright?” G I thought space would make it fade D But it just stretched the pain Em Now I’m missing you in places C You’ve never been --- Verse 2: G I wonder if your new friends know D The way you laugh, the way you lie Em If they get the better version C Or the one I said goodbye to G Do you ever think about me D When your day slows down at night Em Or did you leave me in the past C Like I was easy to rewrite? --- Pre-Chorus: G ‘Cause I’m still holding conversations D That we’ll never get to have Em Saying things into the silence C Hoping somehow they’ll land --- Chorus: G You’re across town, out of reach D But somehow still so close to me Em In every song, in every night C In every “are you doing alright?” G I thought space would make it fade D But it just stretched the pain Em Now I’m missing you in places C You’ve never been --- Bridge: (Strip everything back – just piano) Em If I saw you, would it feel the same? C Or would we just be strangers now? G Would I recognize your smile D Or the way you say my name out loud? Em I don’t know you anymore C But I still miss you like I do --- Final Chorus: (Full emotion – add beat, bass, harmonies) G You’re across town, out of reach D But you’re still a part of me Em Not in touch, not in sight C But you’re in every quiet night G Maybe one day I’ll let go D Maybe I won’t need to know Em Who you are when I’m not there C Or if you ever even cared --- Outro: (Soft fade – piano only) G Different schools, different lives D Same feeling I can’t untie Em C --- Production Notes: - Start with piano only - Add soft beat in pre-chorus - Add bass + full beat in chorus - Drop beat in bridge - Add reverb to vocals for emotional/distant feel - Keep vocals soft and natural (not over-sung) --- ---
