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