Intro:
Cadd9 Em7
C Em7
Verse 1:
G
On your summer trip,
Em7
Drive along the coast,
G Em7
With your little brown bag,
G
And your corduroy coat,
Em7
I thought of you every day,
A
Didn’t you know,
G/B C
I asked you to tell me I’m beautiful.
Verse 2:
G Em7
You stopped on the stairs,
G
You smiled with your teeth,
Em7
I spit out my gum,
G
I let you be mean,
Em7
We talked with our backs,
A
To the car on the beach,
G/B C
I waited for you,
D D
You settled for me.
Pre-Chorus:
Am7
You were my pretty girl,
C Em
Sleep in your lap on the train,
D
I just want you to kiss me,
Am7
And take it away,
C
Leaving too late,
D
Sleep on the train,
D
Ask myself,
D Dsus4 Dsus4*
Why was it her and not.
Verse 2:
Cadd9 Dsus2
I asked you to tell me I’m beautiful,
Em7
Like a stupid girl,
Dsus2
On my back for you,
Cadd9 Dsus2
I got what I wanted I begged for it,
Em7
I shouldn’t have,
Dsus2
Had to ask you to,
Cadd9 Dsus2
There’s a photo of you and her,
Em7
Talking so close on the sofa,
Dsus2
I look at it when I’m alone,
Cadd9 Dsus2
When I asked if you think that I'm beautiful,
Em7 Dsus2
You should’ve been honest,
Cadd9 Am7
And told me you don’t.

Verse 3:
Cadd9 Dsus2
Of these two worlds,
Em7 Em
I’m in the waiting room,
Cadd9
Till I’m blue in the face,
Cadd9
I would wait for you,
Cadd9 G Em7
Look at me it’s so clear,
Dsus2
I was made for you,
Dsus2
Playing glory like,
Dsus2*
I’m on my way to you,
Cadd9
Always sorry,
Am7
With nothing to say for you,
Em7 D/F# G Am7 Em
See you slamming the door,
Dsus2
But I wait for you,
Cadd9 Dsus2 Em7
Just admit you feel nothing,
Em7
I’m making you,
Bm
Always so brave,
Dsus2 C
Until I need some brave from you.
Outro:
Am7
God, please,
Em7 D/F# G Dsus2
That’s enough,
D Cadd9 Am7
We could kiss and make up.

We could kiss and make up.
