Chords with lyrics
♫ Verse 1:
C majorC A minorAm FF
You had people who called you on unmarked numbers
In my peripheral vision
C majorC A minorAm FF
I let it slide like a hose on a slippery plastic summer
All was quickly forgiven
C majorC A minorAm FF
You were so magnetic it was almost obnoxious
C majorC
Flush with the currency of cool
A minorAm FF
I was always turnin' out my empty pockets
G+G
And when it came to you
♫ Chorus:
C majorC A minorAm
I didn't come here to make friends
FF G+G
We were born to be suburban 🏷Legends
C majorC A minorAm
When you hold me, it holds me together
FF G+G
And you kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever
♫ Verse 2:
C majorC A minorAm FF
I had the fantasy that maybe our mismatched star signs
Would surprise the whole school
C majorC A minorAm FF
When I ended up back at our class reunion
Walkin' in with you
C majorC A minorAm FF
You'd be more than a chapter in my old diaries
With the pages ripped out
C majorC A minorAm FF
I am standing in a 1950s gymnasium
G+G
And I can still see you now
♫ Chorus:
C majorC A minorAm
I didn't come here to make friends

When you told me we'd get back together

And you kissed me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever
♫ Outro:
C majorC A minorAm FF
Tick-tock on the clock, I pace down your block
C majorC
I broke my own heart 'cause you were too polite to do it

Waves crash on the shore, I dash to the door

You don't knock anymore and my whole life's ruined

That my life would be ruined
