🎸 Verse 1:
Dmaj7Dmaj7            Cmaj7Cmaj7
Meet me at our corner after dark
           Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
I swear, this city's never seen a light as bright as ours
         Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
It's taking every fiber of our beings to fend it off
           Dmaj7Dmaj7       Cmaj7Cmaj7
But how long can this go on? (on)

🎸 Verse 2:
Dmaj7Dmaj7            Cmaj7Cmaj7
Rode the early thrills of secrecy
                  Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
When you're with your friends
I'm just a passing stranger on the street
            Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
These pent-up feelings brim inside until I'm shoulder-deep
         Dmaj7Dmaj7         Cmaj7Cmaj7
And calling for a lifeboat (oh)


🎸 Chorus:
        D MajorD       C majorC
Wish I didn't know this pain, oh (know this pain)
         D MajorD      C majorC
Lovers caught in retrograde, oh (retrograde)
        D MajorD               C majorC
The more we go against the grain, the more it hurts
      D MajorD   C majorC
All in retrograde
         D MajorD   C majorC
Oh, love in retrograde
      D MajorD  C majorC
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

🎸 Verse 3:
Dmaj7Dmaj7                 Cmaj7Cmaj7
Movie night
I'll sneak in through the back
           Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
I know the drill, we spare your mom and dad the heart attack
              Dmaj7Dmaj7             Cmaj7Cmaj7
Their pride and joy, you're framed in every corner of this flat
           Dmaj7Dmaj7         Cmaj7Cmaj7
And I'd never fit the picture


🎸 Verse 4:
      Dmaj7Dmaj7           Cmaj7Cmaj7
You were talking about our day in the sun
       Dmaj7Dmaj7                Cmaj7Cmaj7
Like it's imminent, though I suspect it'll never come
         Dmaj7Dmaj7           Cmaj7Cmaj7
Keeping our hopes that this isn't a false start (false start)
   Dmaj7Dmaj7      N.C
Is it time to face the facts?


🎸 Chorus:
        D MajorD       C majorC
Wish I didn't know this pain, oh (know this pain)
         D MajorD      C majorC
Lovers caught in retrograde, oh (retrograde)
        D MajorD               C majorC
The more we go against the grain, the more it hurts
      D MajorD   C majorC
All in retrograde
         D MajorD   C majorC
Oh, love in retrograde
      D MajorD  C majorC
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh


🎸 Outro:
  Dmaj7Dmaj7     Cmaj7Cmaj7
And I promise I won't forget you
  Dmaj7Dmaj7       Cmaj7Cmaj7
When I'm leaving this all behind
  Dmaj7Dmaj7      Cmaj7Cmaj7
Can you promise you won't forget me
   Dmaj7Dmaj7        Cmaj7Cmaj7
When you find yourself on the outside?
