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