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