Intro: DAG
Verse:
D
Letʼs drive for no reason, letʼs see where these wheels land
G
Letʼs grind down the curve of this earth
BmAG
You look fine in the evening, and, honey, itʼs starting to storm
DA
When we kissed in the car in the school parking lot
G
Where Iʼd Go with my friends to get drunk
BmAG
Used to wish I meant anything to anywhere, to anyone
Pre-chorus:
DAG
When forever was a sentence, sentence to death
BmAG
Oh, when you were a running tear, I was a drop of sweat
DAG
And, the edges of your soul, I havenʼt seen yet
BmAG
Now Iʼm glad I get forever to see where you went
Chorus:
GA
I wonʼt be alone for the rest of my life
BmA
Iʼll build a boat for when the river gets high
GA
And Iʼll meet a girl in the heat of July
BmAGD
And Iʼll tell her so she knows, that Iʼm broke, but Iʼm real rich in my head
BmA
That I broke a bone that never healed in my hand
Em
So, when I hold her close
BmD
I might loosen my grip, but I wonʼt ever let her go
I wonʼt ever let her go
Post-chorus:
D
Woo.
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Verse:
D
Remember when we called the cops
Bm
ʼCause I got too high, and you got scared
D
And the cops just laughed?
We canʼt make rent, so we window-shop
Bm
In the Upper West Side, oh, my God
D
Could you imagine that?
Chorus:
GD
I wonʼt be alone for the rest of my life
Bm
Iʼll build a boat for when the river gets high
G
And Iʼll meet a girl in the heat of July
Bm
And Iʼll tell her so she knows,
GD
That Iʼm broke, but Iʼm real rich in my head
Bm
That I broke a bone that never healed in my hand
G
So, when I hold her close
DA
I might loosen my grip, but I wonʼt ever let her go
A
I wonʼt ever let her go
Outro:
DAG
When forever was a sentence, sentence to death
BmAG
Oh, when you were a running tear, I was a drop of sweat
DAG
And, the edges of your soul, I havenʼt seen yet
BmAG
Now Iʼm glad I get forever to see where you went
To see where you went
