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