Verse 1:
                 G
You make it look easy
                 D
Your hand on my knee and
               Em
I look at you softly
                    C
We both know we're nothing

Verse 2:
                 G
You touch me on my neck
                 D
I knew that I'd regret

Smiling back at you

I wish that I had you

              G
Saw you on a Tuesday
                D

Whenever I'm ready
               C
You keep me waiting

                   G
I hope that you're sorry
           D

Two years of my life
               C
Hoping you'd change your mind

Verse 5:
         G
And I know that
            D

You love her forever
                C
Yet you're not together

Verse 6:
                      G
But I'm here in your city

I want you to take me
                    Em
You tell 'em we're just friends
                     C
I think that you're faking

Verse 7:
                   G
You cried on our friend's couch
            D
Saying you messed up
            Em
Didn't say what for
          C
Probably best if

Verse 8:
               G
You never had told me
                D
It's making me lose sleep
                  Em
The way that you said it
             C
Promise you meant it

Verse 9:
            G
I sat on a curbside
          D
Wondering why I

Let you slip away
                C
I had you that day way

Verse 10:
          G
Back in October
              D
You had just asked me

Asked me to choose the
                C
Girl you would stay with

Verse 11:
                G
I told you the latter
              D
I wish I was selfish
             Em
Maybe I'd be happy
             C
I if'd just took it

Verse 12:
                   G
And we'd have an apartment
                D
Move in in our twenties
             Em
In New York City
            C
It's all a daydream

Verse 13:
                     G
Cause you made your decision
                    D
I watched and I'll listen
                Em
Write my diary entries
                 C
While dying and empty

Verse 14:
                 G
Never felt your embrace
                D
And it'll stay that way
              Em
As long as I know you
              C
I'll never escape

Outro:
                    G
The thought of us, darling

You shiny white starlet

Em C
