C                              Em
Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books
F                                C
It was misspelled and outside the lines and we loved how it looked
C                          Em
Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress
    F                    C
And the holes in my jeans from years of carelessness
   F                        Am
I know since we've grown, we ache for those memories
  F                      C    Em      C
Honestly, nothing's even compared to you next to me, next to me

C                                   Em
When the words came to you for the first time, you knew you were hooked
    F                          C
And the pride that you felt at the last page of your first book
C                            Em
And the bravery I forced when I sang to an audience of three
     F                            C
Well, it took a million wrong notes just to find a single melody and key
    F                Am
I know since we've grown we plea for clarity
    F                     C       Em
Honestly, nothing's ever made sense til you were next to me, next to me

F   Dm    C         Em
If time is money, then I'll spend it all for you
F    Dm       C      Em
I will buy you flowers with the minutes we outgrew
F     Dm       C         Em
I'll turn hours into gardens, planted just for us to take
F     Dm         C
I'll be reckless with my days, building castles in your name

F               Am
Since we've grown, we long for concrete things
F                            C        Em
Honestly, nothing's felt so sure than when you were next to me, next to me

C Em F C

C                                 Em
So lets cut down the red tape and gather up the pieces of our youth
        F
Cause there's nothing in this world we can't fix with some scissors and glue
