Am F Am G



          C                                 F
There was nothing you could do but turn away
              C                                 F
They told the fathers to hide all the girls away
            Am              F                        C    F
It's just a name, a name, a name, a name, what's in a name?
             C                                      F
And you were sleeping by the time I found you there
               Am                      G
I said “It's a shame we got to cut off all that hair…”
             C            F                C   F
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
                          Am  F                             C   F
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
C F C F
Am F Am G
        C                                             F
We were running through the halls of the middle school
            C                                     F
Writing our names on the sides of the public pool
         Am                    F                        C    F
Like two ghosts in flight on a sleepless night, we were alive
        C                             F
And you told me you were scared of suicide
       Am                            G
On the night that your best friend's brother died
             C            F                C   F
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
                          Am  F                             C   F
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
C F C F
Am F Am G
(Not sure about the bridge, doesn't sound great with just chords anyway)
          C                                              F
And I was lost in you dancing around in your living room
              C                              F
You said your mother's in the back on Valium
        Am                      F                C   F
And she sleeps so hard that you wonder if she is alive
         C                                F
And so I parked my bike outside your house
                   C                                         F
You said, “There's nothing you could do to make me come out”
             Am                   F                      C            F
Because your daddy said I was the worst one yet, it was a lie, a lie, a lie, a lie
                C                              F
‘Cause I always loved the way you looked in the firing line
     Am                         G
Just dancing around in some old sweater of mine
             C            F                C   F
But it's all right
I just hope it's nothing bad
                          Am  F                             C   F
You can call me if you're sad
I don't care what you father said
              C    F                     C    F
This is not a game.   It would be a crying shame
                              Am   F                     C                     F
I mean, honestly, what's in a name?  Tell me, what's in a name, a name, a name
C F C F
           Am       F         Am       G
Oh we were so young
we were so wrong
C F C F
Am F Am G
