[Intro]
D D/C# D D/C# Bm D/A
[Verse 1]
D
I chipped my lens back in Alaska
D/C# D
Took photos of passing ships
D/C# Bm
Back then I didn’t understand it
D/A
If only I had checked my phone
D
I was out of the country
D/C# D
And you were out of your mind
D/C# Bm
I thought you were on top of the world
D/A
Didn’t know you would whirl
[Pre-Chorus]
G Asus4
'Cause when I came back to town
D G
You were almost gone
G Asus4
Felt it in my mouth
D G
'Til your heart went on
[Chorus]
G A
God it was scary, back then I still loved you
D G
'Cause before I left, you called me pretty
G A
I didn’t know how to ask you what happened
D G
You kinda moved on like nothing happened
[Verse 2]
D
A year passes we’re back to August
D/C# D
I think this month is cursed for us
D/C# Bm
This is where the ships pass each other
D/A
This is where I thought you were unbothered
D
'Cause I was out of the city
D/C# D
And you were in curiosity
D/C# D
I didn’t mean to make you cry
D/A
You thought that was goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
G A
In July you said
D G
That you wanted to fly
G A
That was the second time
D G
I ever heard you cry
[Chorus]
G A
God it was scary, didn’t want the world to lose you
D G
Before I left your house, you said “I love you”
G A
You tried so hard to ask me what happened
D G
But I moved on like nothing happened
[Bridge]
G A Bm
I’m sorry I wrote so many songs about you
G A Bm
I don’t even mean half of the things I said
A G A Bm A G
Like when I sang “I hate you” I promise I don’t
G A Bm
I just sing the things I wish I said to you
G A Bm
But I didn’t want the world to lose you
[Outro]
D
I know it started in Alaska
D/C# D
And that you’re gonna leave this town soon

I’m sorry you don’t know what happened
Bm D/A
And that I don’t know what happened to you
