Key: D

🎸 Intro: 

D DM7



🎸 Verse :
D
I still freeze when I look at these
                       DM7      GM7
Faded photographs from February last
             F#
Twenty second or twenty third
E                      A
Shared some dumplings, whispered some words

DM7
We had two maybe three bucks saved
D                 DM7             GM7
Between us sat in blankets on the floor
                 F#
Used to wish for money in rain
  E                    A        G
A west side apartment, paper plane

🎸 Chorus: 
D    A
Oooo oooh
        D        DM7
Then you left in may
                        GM7
Took the wrong long way back home
     F#        B
Wish I’d known
       Em  F#m G    C
That I had all I could want
            Em
In our tiny apartment
      A                 D
Above the Chinese restaurant



🎸 Verse :
DM7
Street sounds blistered with neon lights
      D                     DM7           GM7
Heard the neighbors snoring every other night
                 F#
Eating dumplings from next door
Em                    A
Finish them up they'd give us some more

DM7
Didn't realize we had it all
     D                  DM7            GM7
Even when the roof came caving in that fall
                F#
Oh
I loved you more than you know
Em             A
Covered in the crystal white snow

🎸 Chorus: 
D    A
Oooo oooh
        D        DM7
Then you left in may
                        GM7
Took the wrong long way back home
     F#        B
Wish I’d known
       Em  F#m G    C
That I had all I could want
            Em
In our tiny apartment
      A                 D
Above the Chinese restaurant
