🎸 Intro:

D Dmaj7 Gadd9 x2

        D               Dmaj7
I would picture us slow dancing
       Gadd9
late at night
          D               Dmaj7
You would take my hand so gently,
           Gadd9
sipping red wine
         D
With the lights all dim,
     Dmaj7               Gadd9
your hair messed up just right
        D               Dmaj7
I would give you all my children,
       Gadd9
be your wife

Asus4              Gadd9
But I felt how you shifted
                     Asus4
As you grew cold and distant
                     Gadd9
And I still tried to fix it every time

    Asus4
But talking every night turned into
Gadd9
talking on the weekends
    Asus4
You only messaged me
           Gadd9
before you slept to rest assured that
Asus4
I’m still caving in,
             Gadd9
still easing off what we left unsaid
      E7
I’m a wreck now
                  Gadd9
But babe, we were hell bound
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down

        D             Dmaj7
I would picture us in hindsight,
         Gadd9
down the road
        D            Dmaj7
Looking back at photographs
             Gadd9
and cracking jokes
     D                Dmaj7
Reminiscing when you asked
           Gadd9
my hand to hold
        D                Dmaj7
And how stupid we'd both been
             Gadd9
when we were young

Asus4              Gadd9
But I felt how you faded
                     Asus4
As you grew cold and jaded
                  Gadd9
I knew I'd never make you change your mind

    Asus4
But talking every night turned into
Gadd4
talking on the weekends
    Asus4
You only messaged me
           Gadd9
before you slept to rest assured that
Asus4
I’m still caving in,
             Gadd9
still easing off what we left unsaid
      E7
I’m a wreck now
                  Gadd9
But babe, we were hell bound
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down

D
Slow burn in reverse,
D6add9
you wanted me first
Dmaj7
And it only hurts
Gadd9
'cause I saw it coming
D
Slow burn in reverse,
D6add9
took every wrong turn
Dmaj7
I've had it much worse,
Gadd9                     D Dmaj7
but you'll be some girl's husband
Gadd9              D Dmaj7 Gadd9
And babe, I saw it coming

    Asus4
But talking every night turned into
Gadd9
talking on the weekends
    Asus4
You only messaged me
           Gadd9
before you slept to rest assured that
Asus4
I’m still caving in,
             Gadd9
still easing off what we left unsaid
      E7
I’m a wreck now
                  Gadd9
But babe, we were hell bound
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down
        D Dmaj7 Gadd9
Winding down
