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