Well, is that the way that we're
headеd, then?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Eb
And you couldn't answer me
Gm
Though you could pull mе in while I
brushed my teeth
Bb
And let your hands both freely speak
F
Like I wasn't ever gonna leave
[Chorus]
Eb Bb
You were all I'd ever known
Gm
And now I'm supposed to love you
from a distance
F
Like it's nothing, like it's instant
Eb
And you say, "Let's just see where
Bb
this goes"
Cm
And I don't know how or why you seem
just fine
Gm
'Cause I'm havin' to grasp that
Ab
you're somehow not mine anymore
Gm Eb
It's so cruel how things are only
Bb
almost like they were before
[Post]
(Ah, ah, ah)
Cm
Like they were before (Ah, ah, ah)
Gm
Like they were before (Ah, ah, ah)
Eb
Like they were before (Ah, ah, ah)
[Verse 3]
Bb
We walk downtown and it's charming
You're alarmingly disarming
Gm
Yeah, we've got 48 hours left before
I fly back to my death
Eb
While you stay just fine and feel
alive
South of the Mason-Dixon line
F
Where everyone closes shop at 9
Where you could somehow finally find
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Eb
What you were desperately looking
for
Gm
Funny how you thought that was gonna
be New York
Bb
With our chalkboard walls and
slanted floors
F
Oh, we could've had that and so much
more
Gm
Ask your new lover what it's like to
be given
Bb
A real fighting chance before you
wish her, "Good riddance"
Eb
Did anything ever really count, or
F
was I just a two-year practice
round?
