Intro:
F A Dm Dsus2 Bb
Verse:
F A Dm Bb
Last night when I walked into your house I noticed that the couch had moved
F A Dm Bb
And I wanted to ask you about it
F A Dm Bb
But you were talking so when you finished I opened up my mouth
F A Dm Bb
And you called me out for being bad at listening
F A Dm Bb
So I wrote this song to tell ya just how well that I can listen
F A Dm Bb
And that I think that you are really cute
F A Dm Bb
And I thought that maybe I should wait to tell you that I like you but
F A Dm Bb
I don't really have that much to lose
Chorus:
F A Dm Bb
And I could learn your favorite song and play it on my guitar
F A Dm Bb
and I'll probably sing it all wrong but it might catch your attention
F A Dm Bb
and I don't know your favorite song but it's probably by Mars Volta
F A Dm
cause you said you really like them when we talked
Bb
and I listened
Bb
yeah I listened
Verse:
F A Dm Bb
so this morning when I woke up in my bed I made a list
F A Dm Bb
of all the things you told me last night that I had inside my head
F A Dm Bb
like that yellow is your favorite because it's a happy color
F A Dm Bb
and that you have been sad for as long as you remember
F A Dm Bb
and that the way your kitchen looked made you upset because it was a mess
F A Dm Bb
and that's the way things look when you're depressed
F A Dm Bb
and you sat across the room on that rocking chair you said you hate cause
F A Dm Bb F
it is so loud and I wished that you had sat next to me on the couch
Bridge:
F A Dm
And I'm scared that this list is too long
Bb F A
That I can't fit all these things into a song
Bb
And still keep your attention
F A Dm Bb
So I'm trying hard to mention some important things that I feel will really demonstrate
F A Dm Bb
Just how well that I listened
Verse:
F A Dm Bb F A
Like how you said with tears in your eyes that you wish that being grateful was enough
Dm Bb
to keep you from feeling sad all the time
F A Dm
And that your favorite flowers are impatiens
Bb F A
And that when you love somebody you wait
Dm Bb
Patiently for them
F A Dm Bb
And that your favorite movie is the Shawshank Redemption
F A Dm Bb
And that serenity means listening to the water down at Tucquan Glenn
F A Dm Bb
And how you make poor decisions with the people that you choose to date
Pre-Chorus:
F A
And you'll probably think I'm crazy for this and
Dm Bb F A
I'd tell you that I don't give a shit but that would be a lie because I care
Dm Bb
What you think about me
F A Dm Bb
And I just really, desperately want to be your next poor decision
Bb
Be your next poor decision
Bb
Be your next poor decision
Chorus:
F A Dm Bb
And I could learn your favorite song and play it on my guitar
F A Dm Bb
and I'll probably sing it all wrong but it might catch your attention
F A Dm Bb
and I don't know your favorite song but it's probably by Mars Volta
F A Dm
cause you said you really like them when we talked
Bb
and I listened
Bb
yeah I listened
