Key: G

Verse 1:

September
     C             G
Just wanting it to end
  Dm
Remember



            C                 G
The way you watched me when I said
        Dm
I could never be what you expected
C             G
I'd rather be dead
   Dm
September
       C        G
Losing friends

Bridge 1:
F           Dm           C             G
You used to say I had to figure out my own truth
F       Dm           C        G
I could never see it through
F          Dm                C         G
But when I got home from the hospital
F       Dm             C   G
I knew exactly what to do

Verse 2:
   Dm
Forever
                  C              G
Best friends just like we always said
Dm                                   C                  G
Frightened girls just trying to live life outside their heads
    Dm                                   C              G
But then your patience wore too thin and I could not pretend
   Dm                       C     G
By November we never spoke again

Chorus 1:
     Em           D           Am  Em
When we met I'd already given up
Em              D              C          G
Shitty punk and black label as if it was enough
Em              D            Am     Em
Caught in the uncertainty of blood
   Em           G                 C     G
Confusing gentleness at last with love

Dm C G x2

Verse 3:
  Dm
Together
             C             G
We'd make it out alive, we said
Dm                                C         G
Beacons shining bright across the internet
           Dm                              C                 G
Plans were tentatively made but there were rifts we couldn't mend
Dm                C                G
Ever wondering if we could last as friends

Bridge 2:
F              Dm             C             G
Moving twice a year and never looking back
F            Dm               C          G
Wondering if this is all I'll ever have
F                   Dm                C           G
Counting change for food and thinking day by day
         F                   Dm              C            G
Tried to cross the border to see you but got turned away

N.C.
"What does it mean "
N.C.
"I'm sorry."

Chorus 2:
  Em              D                  Am            Em
I think about the way we caused each other so much pain
    Em           D               C              G
And my obsession with always needing an escape
    Em               D            Am               Em
But even when things got so bad I thought I'd run away
      Em            G                    C            G
There was a comfort knowing things would never be the same
