Barrier Island Chords

[Intro]
A  E2  C#m  E2 
A  E2  C#m  E2 
 
[Verse 1]
   A                  E2
It took 'til we heard time ticking
   A              E2         Bm
Until we turned intentional about
E       A     D/A
Togetherness
        A               E2
There's no such thing as too late
     A           E2            Bm    E
We had days to appreciate but I wish
           A     D/A
We had more time
 
 
[Chorus]
  A                D2
I don't know why I miss you
   A                 D2
It feels like I just met you
   Bm           E                       A     D/A
Before you left I thought that you should know
    A                   D2
I'm torn up that you're leaving
        A                D2
It'd be good to hear you saying
     Bm            E              A
That you'll remember me from Mykonos
 
 
[Verse 2]
       A               E2                     A     D/A
Like acquaintances we brushed shoulders for a year
     Bm                 E                  A     D/A
Like wishful thinkers, circled for one more
     A            E2        A                      E2
And finally like lovers, we walked and talked like lovers
      Bm     E               A     D/A
For a week... wish it were more
 
 
[Chorus]
      A            D2
And I wonder why I miss you
         A          D2
I mean I never even kissed you
        Bm              E                    A    D/A
Just before you left I called to tell you so
    A               D2
I'm sad that you're leaving
        A                D2
I'll be glad to hear you saying
     Bm              E           A
That you remember me from Mykonos
 
 
A     Bm/A    C#m/A     Bm/A
  Bada, bada, bada bada ba    (badabada)
A     Bm/A    C#m/A  Bm/A   A
  Bada, bada, bada   bada   ba
 
 
[Verse 3]
    A                      E2            A      E2
For years our hands washed dishes in the sink
         Bm               E                A      D/A
Wishin' I could wipe that soap off of your cheek
A               E2            A       E2
Fingers rollin' momos through university
  Bm                  E
Until last night they pulled you close
  Bm     E    A
Together finally
 
 
[Chorus]
      A              D2
And I know now why I miss you
    A                 D2
I'm sure it's cause I love you
       Bm              E                    A    D/A
Just before you left I called to tell you so
    A                 D2
I'm sorry that you're leaving
         A                D2
But it's good to hear you saying
            Bm              E                A  Asus A
That you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
 
 
[Bridge]
A          Bm/A
  Two years, four hands
C#m/A        Bm/A
Holdin' to a chance
A         Bm/A
  One week, two minds
C#m/A   Bm/A   A
Runnin' out of time
                     x2
 
 
[Chorus]
      A              D2
And I know now why I miss you
 
(Two years, four hands)
    A                 D2
I'm sure it's cause I love you
 
(holdin' to a chance)
       Bm              E                          A   D/A
Just before you left I thought that you should know
 
(One week, two minds, runnin' out of time)
          A                 D2
While I'm sorry that you're leaving
 
(Two years, four hands)
        A                D2
It's so good to hear you saying
 
(holdin' to a chance)
            Bm              E                A
That you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
      
(one week, two minds, runnin' out of time)
                                             x2
 
            Bm              E                 A
Yeah you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
