Verse 1

B
  There's a low-hanging sun I
B                  C
  think we're running a red I
B                                                    B
 hate the thought I could've died with you
                  C
Thinking I'd put this to bed my
B

  mum says it's bad for my health I
B                 C
  haven't forgiven you yet but
B
  God, I'm bitter in the blood
    B                        C
So I will be when I'm dead


Chorus

            B                       B
You took time that wasn't yours to
                     C
Engineered an enemy
                               B
From someone who adored you
            B                     B
You had time enough to halt this
                              C
Despite the years between us
                                     B
You were mine enough to call it
                    Gm
Call it what it was
                C           B
It was teenage love
                    Gm
Call it what it was
                C           B
It was teenage love
If only for one of us

Verse 2

B
 Lisa asked down the phone
     B                    C
If your heart was really as bad
         B
As the doctor was telling you then
     B               C
Or if you even lied about that
 B
I hated to say you were honest
  B                C
And let some light through the cracks
 B
I'll never know what was real
          B              C
And you'll never need to look back


Pre-Chorus

     Cm
It's fitting I guess
I didn't know it existed
         B
The thing in your chest
I always thought you were missing
    B        C
Is gonna take us both down


Chorus

            B                       B
You took time that wasn't yours to
                     C
Engineered an enemy
                               B
From someone who adored you
            B                     B
You had time enough to halt this
                              C
Despite the years between us
                                     B
You were mine enough to call it
                    Gm
Call it what it was
                C           B
It was teenage love
                    Gm
Call it what it was
                C           B
It was teenage love


Outro

              B
I used to kiss your head and call you soft
             C
Now you kiss my friends in the Gellions loft
               B
You said I dish out shame like it gets me off
                    C
And they'll forget my name when the lights Go on
              B
I used to wanna live slow by the riverbed
            C
Now I drink to get calm and to un-forget
                B
I tried to miss you, man, but it messes my head
                C
Trying to marry your face with the things you said
                B
I hate that I'll get old before you know your crime
              C
And then all I've got is to make them rhyme
                  B
I hate your stupid bar and your hairline
                      C
Hate that you had me before I was even mine
                B
I hate you close to home and far away
            C
In that empty new place where you tax evade
               B
I hate the taxi rank and the ***** you take
                C
I hate that everyone knows and they'll never say
B   B   C   B
