Bittersweet sea - sons

Mistake a warm winter for spring
        D/F#D/F#  G+G      D/F#D/F#    E minorEm        C majorC
Seems like I'm best at leaving when leaving is not the best thing

Everybody's gonna make mistakes,

But you'll never be one of mine

      D/F#D/F# G+G     D/F#D/F#     E minorEm       C majorC
There is no an - ger, it's just you and I and the truth

You can try to make her but love will not be forced to bloom, to bloom

  C majorC                D MajorD
But I still swear that you were God sent

And that's just the way it goes now
