Chords with lyrics

Tuning: EADGBE

Intro:
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB (x4)


Verse 1:
E MajorE                        A augmentedA
It must have been October, the last time that we spoke
N.C.
And though I think about you,
          E MajorE
I decided that it's safer where we left it,
N.C.
Safer for us both
A augmentedA
That stuff was a million years ago

Pre-Chorus:
C# minorC#m      BB       E MajorE
When you got accepted, I went loopy
    A augmentedA       C# minorC#m
Hoping you'd be on my team
       BB        A augmentedA
When you got accepted, I was totally ridiculous


Chorus:
E MajorE      BB          F#F#        A augmentedA
We were the ones who always felt awkward, socially cornered
           E MajorE
And I still feel the same
          BB              F#F#
Still dreading the laughter, like, what does it matter?
         A augmentedA
It's not what I'm after, anyway


Instrumental:
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB (x2)


Verse 2:
E MajorE
I won't take a compliment,
      A augmentedA
but I will ruminate for hours on a single mean remark
E MajorE
Collecting them like ornaments,
     A augmentedA
the nasty things that people say,
                      C# minorC#m
that I save up to think about when it gets dark

Pre-Chorus:
C# minorC#m      BB       E MajorE
When you got accepted, I went loopy
    A augmentedA       C# minorC#m
Hoping you'd be on my team
       BB        A augmentedA
When you got accepted, I was totally ridiculous


Chorus:
E MajorE      BB          F#F#        A augmentedA
We were the ones who always felt awkward, socially cornered
           E MajorE
And I still feel the same
          BB              F#F#
Still dreading the laughter, like, what does it matter?
         A augmentedA
It's not what I'm after, anyway

Pre-Chorus:
C# minorC#m     BB        E MajorE
When you got accepted, I went loopy

Hoping you'd be on my team
       BB       A augmentedA   FF
When you got accepted, I was right

Outro:
 E MajorE      A augmentedA       C# minorC#m    BB   E MajorE  A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB
I can't help feeling like I did that October day
E MajorE     A augmentedA       C# minorC#m      BB
Ten years later, I'm so glad that it's over
   E MajorE     A augmentedA       C# minorC#m    BB
But I can't help feeling like I did that October...
E MajorE     A augmentedA       C# minorC#m      BB
Ten years later, I'm so glad that it's over
   E MajorE     A augmentedA       C# minorC#m    BB   E MajorE
