• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Key: Db

Intro:

A#


Verse 1:
A#                    F
You were a Stetson, and I was nineteen
Gm                        D#
You were the colors that I'd never seen
A#                        F
You were whiskey, I was grenadine
Gm                        D#
Marlboro Reds mixed with teenage green
     G#              D#
Like fireworks, we lit up the sky
    G#                            D#
But no one here talks about the 5th of July

Chorus:
A#          F                     Gm
 Wish I'd known how this would shake out
           D#                        A#
You were a mustang that I couldn't break down
             F                       Gm
The TV don't show the mess love can make
             D#                            Cm
One domino onto the next until the levee breaks
          A#                      D#
Just like that, and you fall so fast
                 F /A                   A#
But you can't go back before the aftermath


Verse 1:
A#                       F
Couple white pills and a glass of red wine
Gm                  D#
Only damn thing to wash you out my mind
A#                    F
Lost my virtue, and you kept your pride
    Gm                                  D#
The best and the worst thing that I've done with my time


Chorus:
A#          F                     Gm
 Wish I'd known how this would shake out
           D#                        A#
You were a mustang that I couldn't break down
             F                       Gm
The TV don't show the mess love can make
             D#                            Cm
One domino onto the next until the levee breaks
          A#                      D#
Just like that, and you fall so fast
                 F /A                   A#
But you can't go back before the aftermath


Bridge:
                   F /A
They'll talk about champagne
                   G#
The flowers in the chapel
                     D#
Don't talk about the wreckage
                  Cm   F /A
When everything unravels


Chorus:
A#          F                     Gm
 Wish I'd known how this would shake out
           D#                        A#
You were a mustang that I couldn't break down
             F                       Gm
The TV don't show the mess love can make
             D#                            Cm
One domino onto the next until the levee breaks
          A#                      D#
Just like that, and you fall so fast
                 F /A    A#   F
But you can't go back
                Gm    D#    A#
Before the aftermath
