There was nothing you could do but turn away
C majorC FF
They told the fathers to hide all the girls away
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
It's just a name, a name, a name, a name, what's in a name?
C majorC FF
And you were sleeping by the time I found you there
A minorAm G+G
I said “It's a shame we got to cut off all that hair…”
C majorC FF C majorC FF
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
C majorC FF C majorC FF
A minorAm FF A minorAm G+G
C majorC FF
We were running through the halls of the middle school
C majorC FF
Writing our names on the sides of the public pool
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
Like two ghosts in flight on a sleepless night, we were alive
C majorC FF
And you told me you were scared of suicide
A minorAm G+G
On the night that your best friend's brother died
C majorC FF C majorC FF
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
C majorC FF C majorC FF

(Not sure about the bridge, doesn't sound great with just chords anyway)
C majorC FF
And I was lost in you dancing around in your living room
C majorC FF
You said your mother's in the back on Valium
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
And she sleeps so hard that you wonder if she is alive
C majorC FF
And so I parked my bike outside your house
C majorC FF
You said, “There's nothing you could do to make me come out”
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
Because your daddy said I was the worst one yet, it was a lie, a lie, a lie, a lie
C majorC FF
‘Cause I always loved the way you looked in the firing line
A minorAm G+G
Just dancing around in some old sweater of mine
C majorC FF C majorC FF
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
C majorC FF C majorC FF
This is not a game. It would be a crying shame
A minorAm FF C majorC FF
I mean, honestly, what's in a name? Tell me, what's in a name, a name, a name
C majorC FF C majorC FF
A minorAm FF A minorAm G+G
Oh we were so young
we were so wrong
C majorC FF C majorC FF
