[Verso 1]
 
C Am
I know it's not how you planned it but that's not
F
The worst thing in the world
C Am
I know that you're scared 'cause you think I'll let you down again
F
But I wouldn't, girl
 
C
I want you to want me when you're dead
F
To roll in your grave like we're not done yet
Am
To call off the whole damn funeral
F
'Cause our love is so damn beautiful
C
I want you to know that the past is past
F
That everything changed when I heard you laugh
Am G
'Cause you sitting there with your headphones in
F Dm C
You were the point of all this livin'
 
[Verso 2]
 
C
I'm sure that you're right
Am
And I can't blame you for things you haven't done yеt
F
Even if I'm scared you will
 
C Am
And I think a lot about May, about meeting you that day
Am
I was late and a sеrial blusher
F
Never made it to the second date
 
C
But I want you to want me despite all that
F
To live every day like the plane might crash
Am
To chase every satellite and star
F
I'd pin all of my hopes to your handlebars
C
The truth is I'd be such a jealous ghost
F
I'd scrub all your lover's names out the stone
Am G
'Cause you sitting there with your headphones in
F Dm C
You were the point of all this livin'
 
G
Your heart was full of boys and brimstone
Am
Yours was full of girls who lied
F
We both got hurt by other people
F
Both found each other, baby, right in time
G
I don't need to live forever, just
Am
Not one day longer than you
F Dm F
Ooh, ooh, ooh
 
C
I want you to want me when you're dead
F
To roll in your grave like we're not done yet
Am
To call off the whole damn funeral
F
Because our love was so damn beautiful
