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