Intro
D G/B
[Verse 1]
D G/B
time capsules live below the earth
D G/B
dig them up again and hope it doesn't hurt
D G/B
under a tree across the lake
D G/B
i think i learned what love was that day
[Chorus 1]
Em A
and i'll trace it on a canvas
Bm A
even if i can't look at it yet
G Bm
and i swear i'll paint it green
G Bm
it was the prettiest day i'd ever seen
G Bm A
and the whole world fell asleep but me and you
Em Bm G
we were over the moon
D G/B
[Verse 2]
D G/B
hopeless standards behold
D G/B
i still found you the perfect sweater
D G/B
for a room crammed full
D G/B
but you acted like i was the only one there
[Chorus 2]
Em A
and i wish i could wear that dress again
Bm A
but there's no way i could fit in
G Bm
and i'll remember all that green
G Bm
you were the prettiest thing i'd ever seen
G Bm A
and the whole world fell asleep but me and you
Em Bm G
we were over the moon
[Bridge]
G A
and will you still wear your tokyo shirt
G
and now what am i to do with your trophy
A
that says i'm your best girl
Em Bm A
and wars lost the world a couple of good monets
Em Bm
and i wish i could hold your hand again
A
but it's made out of clay
[Chorus 3]
G Bm
and i'll remember all that green
G Bm
we were pretty sweet for being 17
G Bm A
and they handed us a sheet of paper and glue
Em Bm G
oh what a masterpiece we drew
[Outro]
D
hopeless standards behold
G/B
under a tree across the lake
D G/B
i think i learned what love was that day
Em Bm G
under a tree across the lake
Em Bm G
i still found you the perfect sweater
Em Bm G
over the moon
