Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste: Sem capotraste
G
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Bm
Was all we needed
A
You drew stars around my scars
G
But now I'm bleedin'
D
'Cause I knew you
A
Steppin' on the last train
G
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
A
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy, I
D
I knew you
A
Leavin' like a father
G
Running like water, I
And when you are young,
A
they assume you know nothing
D
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
A
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
G
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
A
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
D
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
A
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
G
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
A
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
Em
And I knew you'd come back to me
A
You'd come back to me
G
And you'd come back to me
A
And you'd come back Sayin’
C Am
You heard the rumors from Inez
G F
You can't believe a word she says
G
Most times, but this time it was true
Am G C F
The worst thing that I ever did
Am G F G
Was what I did to you
C C
But if I just showed up at your party
Am
Would you have me?
G
Would you want me?
F Am
Would you tell me to go fuck myself?
G
Or lead me to the garden?
C
In the garden would you trust me
Am G F
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
Am G
I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything
C
But I know I miss you
D G
Back when we were still changin' for the better
Wanting was enough
Em
For me, it was enough
A D
To live for the hope of it all
G
Cancel plans just in case you'd call
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
Em A
So much for summer love and saying "us"
D
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
G Em A
You weren't mine to lose, no
