I Meant It chords by Jonah Marais

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

G, Em 2x

Verse 1:
G7                    C
You used to paint me pictures
C                         G
All alone we would sit by the lake
G7                 C
You never wasted a moment
C                        G
Telling me just what you think


Pre-Chorus:
Em             Cadd9
Then, oh, this changed
         D              C
You were never what you claimed

Chorus:
    G                    Em
And how can you stand to fake it?
         G                         C
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
    Em
You left me that day
  Am        E
I needed to grow
    G                    Em
And how can you stand to chance it?
         G                      C
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
     Em
I'm leaving you now
Am      A
Alone I go


Post-Chorus:
A        Am            D
I said I would, I meant it


Verse 2:
  G7                 C
I wanted to move to L.A
    C            D7                   G
But this is your home, you wanted to stay
         G7                C
We never talked about it ending
             D                             C
And only our future, you said this was our time


Pre-Chorus:
   G         Em
To just hold on
    G                Em
And maybe I held too long


Chorus:
    G                    Em
And how can you stand to fake it?
         G                         C
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
    Em
You left me that day
  Am        A
I needed to grow
    G                    Em
And how can you stand to chance it?
         G                      C
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
    Em
I'm leaving you now
Am     A
Alone I go


Post-Chorus:
A        Am
I said I would


Bridge:
    G7          G
And what are we thinking
        C                     D           G
I never thought this would be us, I still miss you
C      G
Oh, yeah
    C    D          G
And oh, hey, yeah


Chorus:
G                    Em
How can you stand to fake it?
         G                         C
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
    Em
You left me that day
Am          E
I needed to grow
    G                    Em
And how can you stand to chance it?
     G                          C
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
     Em
I'm leaving you now
A       E
Alone I go


Post-Chorus:
  A      Am            D
I said I would, I meant it
