August Ukulele chords by Taylor Swift

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:

 G      C                      Am
Salt air, and the rust on your door
               D
I never needed anything more
G       C             Am
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
               D
"Never have I ever before"


Chorus:
    G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                                   Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
                    D
'Cause it was never mine
    G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                                  Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
                      D
'Cause you were never mine

Verse 2:
G        C            Am
Your back beneath the sun
                D
Wishin' I could write my name on it
G            C                    Am
Will you call when you're back at school?
            D
I remember thinkin' I had you


Chorus:
    G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                                    Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
               D
'Cause it was never mine
    G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                                  Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
                 D
'Cause you were never mine

G C Am D


Bridge:
G                                        C
Back when we were still changin' for the better
            Am
Wanting was enough
               D
For me, it was enough
                G
To live for the hope of it all
                       C
Canceled plans just in case you'd call
                                Am
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
                       D
So much for summer love and saying "us"
                   G            C
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
                     Am   D
You weren't mine to lose, no


Chorus:
    G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                                    Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
                    D
'Cause it was never mine
    G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                                   Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
                      D
'Cause you were never mine


Outro:
 G                    C
'Cause you were never mine
      Am
Never mine
    D
But do you remember?
               G
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
         C
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Am                                                     D
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
                   G
"Meet me behind the mall"
              G
(Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car")
          C
(And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?)
 Am                                                     D
(Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all)
                     G
("Meet me behind the mall")
             G
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
         C
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Am                             D
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all)
         G                      C
For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
         Am                      D
(For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all)
