Em
Last night I waited out in the darkness
C
Realized there’s some things I’ll never know
G
Why you decided to take for granted
D
You threw away the sequel
Em
Last night I gave up on what we started
C
Won’t spend my love on a lost cause
G
So if there’s hope for the broken-hearted
D
Why do I feel so far?


[Pre-Chorus]
Em
Since the day you left
                C
I learned to forgive but not forget
                 G                                      D
While all of the heartache camе and went, I still held on


[Chorus]
                         Em
This is my messagе in a bottle
                     C
I hope you’ll never find
                    G                                   D
It holds all of the remnants of the love you've left behind
                         Em
This is my message in a bottle
                      C
It travels space and time
                            G                                     D
To share the story of the world that could have been with you and I

My message in a bottle


[Verse 2]
Em
Last night I retraced the steps we'd taken
C
Just to see if I could walk alone
G
I may look strong but I still feel forsaken
D
You’ve never felt so close


[Pre-Chorus]
Em
Since the day you left
                C
I learned to forgive but not forget
                 G                                     D
While all of the heartache came and went, I still held on


[Chorus]
                        Em
This is my message in a bottle
                     C
I hope you’ll never find
                    G                                  D
It holds all of the remnants of the love you've left behind
                        Em
This is my message in a bottle
                     C
It travels space and time
                          G                                       D
To share the story of the world that could have been with you and I

My message in a bottle


[Bridge]
Em
Since the day you left
                C
I learned to forgive but not forget
                 G                                     D
While all of the heartache came and went, I still held on
Em
Sign off my regrets
          C
I will reclaim the nights you've spent
             G
Sincerely, I wish we never met
            D
But here we are


[Chorus]
                         Em
This is my message in a bottle
                     C
I hope you’ll never find
                     G                                 D
It holds all of the remnants of the love you've left behind
                         Em
This is my message in a bottle
                      C
It travels space and time
                          G
To share the story of the world
                                  D
That could have been with you and I
                Em
My message in a bottle
