Verse
G#
I see you around
D#/G Fm7 Cadd9
That ring around your finger says you're better now
G# D#/G
I tried to find the words to say
Fm7
Without letting regret
Cadd9
Get the best of me
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G#
Fell for you
D#/G
That summer on the east coast
Fm7 Cadd9
Up till dawn just doin what we want
G#
Standing there
D#/G
With nothin but my shirt on
Fm7
Got me tongue tied
Cadd9
Just looking at you
[Chorus 1]
G#
Though many come and go
D#/G
Well it's just not the same
Fm7
Comfort you'll never know
Cadd9
Baby, you're not to blame
G#
I shoulda married you
D#/G
You shoulda carried my name
Fm7
Feels like I buried youth
Cadd9
Looks like you did the same
G# D#/G Fm7 Cadd9
[Verse 2]
G#
It's been years now
D#/G Fm7
And the last time that we spoke
Cadd9
My head was in the clouds
G# D#/G
These letters that I'll never send
Fm7
No matter how they start
Cadd9
I always know how they end
G# D#/G
Talk to me, girl, what am I supposed to do?
Fm7
I'm just a little caught up
Cadd9
In overcoming you
G# D#/G
Memories in the night that I can't shake
Fm7 Cadd9
Polaroids in my bed
Reflecting better days
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G#
Fell for you
D#/G
That summer on the east coast
Fm7 Cadd9
Up till dawn just doin what we want
G#
Up all night
D#/G
Just talking bout our future
Fm7
And if we run
Cadd9
We'll have each other's back
[Chorus 2]
G#
Though many come and go
D#/G
Well it's just not the same
Fm7
Comfort you'll never know
Cadd9
Baby, you're not to blame
G#
I shoulda let you know
D#/G
Though you drive me insane
Fm7
Made me a better man
Cadd9
Words I'll take to my grave
[Bridge]
G# D#/G
I remember the way you said my name
Fm7
And how your hands started to shake
Cadd9
Your face was melting in the rain, whoa oh
G# D#/G
Leaning up against the hood of my car
Fm7
Speaking softly in the night
Cadd9 G# D#/G
Under barely visible stars
Fm7 Cadd9
Under barely visible stars
[Pre-Chorus 3]
G#
Stuck on you
D#/G
That summer on the east coast
Fm7
Up till dawn
Cadd9
Thinking I was wrong
G#
Why can't I erase you?
D#/G
I tried to replace you
Fm7 Cadd9
But I'm hearing her in every song
[Chorus 3]
G#
Though many come and go
D#/G
Well itâs just not the same
Fm7
Comfort you'll never know
Cadd9
Baby, you're not to blame
G#
Shoulda ran after you
D#/G
Chasing your car through the rain
Fm7
The tears that clouded your eyes
Cadd9 G# D#/G Fm7
Now I'm just screaming at your grave
Cadd9 G# D#/G
You should've carried my name
Fm7 Cadd9 G#
You could've carried my name
