Intro:
It's always best at the beginning
Verse 1:
A augmentedA
I remember when we first fell in love
D MajorD
Symphonies at the bus stop on a Tuesday
A augmentedA
I was wearing blue Nike high tops
E MajorE
You were annotating Greek tragedies
A augmentedA
I spent the next eight months
D MajorD
Documentin' my heart in voice memos
A augmentedA
Tryna' write down my feelings in real time
E MajorE D MajorD
Part of me knew it would slip through my fingers so quickly
N.C.
Like it always does
Pre-Chorus:
D MajorD
I guess I was too much for you
E MajorE
Or was I just not enough for you?
D MajorD
I can never decide, so I analyze
E MajorE
Replay all the scenes in my movie screen
D MajorD
How I pulled away and you made me pay
E MajorE
That weekend in May, that night in July
D MajorD
Blame it on summer, blame it on distance
E MajorE
Blame it on me, on all my resistance
D MajorD
To get in so close, I might really need you
E MajorE
You're the one person, who might really see through
D MajorD
All of my bullshit and all of my anger
E MajorE
That time when you called and I didn't answer
D MajorD
So I just relive these communications
E MajorE
And then I go back to our last conversation
Chorus:
A augmentedA E MajorE
Now you're leaning against a brick wall
D MajorD
With your backpack on baby
A augmentedA E MajorE
You look so much older than
D MajorD
Than when I met you
A augmentedA E MajorE
I can't believe its over
D MajorD
I watch our lives untangle
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I guess that this is the part when
I block your number
Verse 2:
A augmentedA D MajorD
Sorting through the nuances of conversation
Your affliction tells me if you mean it
A augmentedA
Modern love is so damn romantic
E MajorE D MajorD
The irony of poor connection as we talk over FaceTime
D MajorD
What a metaphor
A augmentedA
You say I remind you of fiction
D MajorD
A augmentedA remarkable girl but also a nightmare
A augmentedA E MajorE
You found it poetic and sometimes magnetic
D MajorD
Until you got sick of my psychoanalysis
E MajorE
Like they always do
Pre-Chrous:
D MajorD
I'll blame it on summer, I'll blame it on distance
E MajorE
I'll blame it on you, on all your persistence
D MajorD
That it's only chances, and it's only timin'
E MajorE
And if it were perfect, I wouldn't be cryin'
D MajorD
On the floor of my dorm room, you wait in the lobby
E MajorE
And you keep insistin' and I keep on sobbin
D MajorD
And I just relive the deliberations
E MajorE
And then I go back to our last conversation
Chorus:
A augmentedA E MajorE
Now you're leaning against a brick wall

I watch our lives untangle

I block your number
