Chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
Intro:
Ab F Ab Db Fm
Eb Ab
Straightening your collar
'Cause you know without your father
Db
You're just unemployed
Ab
Dancing on the weekends
Oh, you know you own those sequins
Fm
Kissing all the boys
Db
But was it you
Eb
When the sky turned blue
Ab Fm
When we said
We wouldn't sleep
Ab Eb Ab
Until our memories rewind
Fm Ab
You say you are an artist
But you know it's just another
Fm
Way to fit the mold
Ab
Twenty different leggings
For that outfit you're perfecting
Fm
When it gets too cold
Db
But where are you
Eb
The other one of you
Fm
The one I met
On that day
Ab Eb Ab
You moved to town from Michigan
Interlude:
Fm Db Eb
Ab Fm Db
So why did you listen
Ab Eb
To the kids at Union Pool?
Fm
Are they cool?
Db
Do they make you think
Ab Eb
That you're so unsuitable
Fm Db
So why did you try
Ab Eb
To fit this caricature
Fm
The one you painted
Db
Back in high school
Ab Eb Ab
Of that girl you dreamt to be when you left home
Interlude:
Fm Ab Db Ab Eb Fm Ab Eb
Ab
Nursing that hangover
With a cup of coffee
You can see me
Walking by
Turn your head away
Cause you had nothing
Left to say
Abm Fm
So you don't even try
Ab
But someday, maybe
Db Eb
We'll just get away
Fm
And you will say
Ab
This was just
Eb
Another phase in your life
Ab
Straightening your collar
'Cause you know without your father
Fm
You're just unemployed
Db
Dancing on the weekends
Eb
Oh, you know you own those sequins
Kissing all the boys
Ab
You say you are an artist
But you know it's just another
