[Verse]
Bm C D Em
Bare foot on the sidewalk
Bm C D Em
Friend of a friend on a Friday night
Bm C D Em
Cigarettes of a small talk
Bm C D Em
You had a pack but you were stealing mine
Bm C D Em
Drowning in my jacket
Bm C D Em
Staring hazel colored holes through me
Bm C D Em
For a minute there we had it
Bm C D Em
All the makings of a paperback scene
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C D Em Bm
The stars, the heart
C D Em Bm
You have a key
C D Em Bm C
I had the car
[Chorus]
G D
Hey, hey, baby you can call it
C
What you want to call it
Em D
We were two hearts falling in
G D
Head first, should’ve roped me in first
C
Should’ve read in reverse
Em D Em
Had a million copies sold
D C
I guess I was just a hand to hold
D
In the greatest story never told
D Em Bm C
D Em Bm C

[Verse]
Bm C D Em
Threw a penny in the fountain
Bm C D Em
There at the edge of a downed li-ine
Bm C D Em
Said forever till we found out
Bm C D
Young love’s just a sucker for a good life
Em Bm C D Em
I couldn’t tell you when it happened
Bm C D Em
When the fairy tales stalled out
Bm C D Em
I could’ve swore it was magic
Bm C D
I could’ve swore you’d be mine by now
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Bm C D Em Bm
So long, old friend
C D Em Bm
You took the paper
C D Em
I took the pen
Bm C
Oh oh oh on yeah
[Chorus]
G D
Hey, hey, baby you can call it
C
What you want to call it
Em D
We were two hearts falling in
G D
Head first, should’ve roped me in first
C
Should’ve read in reverse
Em D Em
Had a million copies sold
D C
I guess I was just a hand to hold
D
In the greatest story never told
[Break]
Am
We started strong but we fell apart
Em D
Right at the good part (Right at the good part)
Am C
And now we're left with what could've been
D
Should've been all due to a broken heart
[Chorus]
G D
Hey, hey, baby you can call it
C
What you want to call it
Em D
We were two hearts falling in
G D
Head first, should’ve roped me in first
C
Should’ve read in reverse
Em D Em
Had a million copies sold
D C
I guess I was just a hand to hold
D
In the greatest story never told
[Outro]
D Em Bm C D Em
Never told, never told (Never told, never told)
Bm C D Em
Never told, never told (Never told, never told)
Bm C D Em
Never told, never told (Never told, never told)
Bm C D Em
Never told, never told
Bm C D Em
