• Difficulty: Beginner

Intro:

C


Verse 1:
C
 You left your typewriter at my apartment
F
 Straight from the tourtured poets department
C              F
 I think some things I never say

 Like, "Who uses typewriters anyway "
  Am            G
 But you're in self-sabotage mode
               C
 Throwing spikes down on the road
            F
 But I've seen this episode and still love the show
 Am     G
 Who else decodes you?

Chorus:
C             F
 And who's gonna hold you like me?
C               F
 And who's gonna know you if not me?

 I laughed in your face and said,
Am            G
 "You're not Dylan Thomas. I'm not Patti Smith.
C               F
 This ain't the Chelsea Hotel. We're modern idiots."
   Am     G     C
 And who's gonna hold you like me?
  F
 Nobody
      C
 No-fucking-body
  F
 Nobody

 C  F  C  F


Verse 2:
F
 When the morning came
 C               Am
We were cleaning incense off your vinyl shelf
        G
'Cause we lost track of time again
F           C
 Laughing with my feet in your lap
   Am     G
Like you were my closest friend
F           C
"How'd we end up on the floor, anyway "
     Am                  G
You say, "Your roommate's cheap-ass screw top Rosé, that's how"
F     C     G
 I see you every day now


Chorus:
   F   C
And I chose you
  Am    G
The one I was dancing with
    F    C
In New York, no shoes
    Am    G
Looked up at the sky, and it was
  F
The burgundy on my T-shirt
     C
When you splashed your wine into me
      Am
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
  G
So scarlet, it was
  F
The mark they saw on my collarbonе
  C
The rust that grew between tеlephones
  Am
The lips I used to call "home"
  G           F C Am G
So scarlet, it was maroon


Bridge:
C
 Sometimes I wonder if you're gonna screw this up with me
F
 But you told Lucy you'd kill yourself if I ever leave
C
 And I had said that to Jack about you, so I felt seen
F
 Everyone we know understands why it's meant to be
C        F
 'Cause we're crazy
      C          F
 So tell me, who else is gonna know me?
  Am               G
 At dinner you take my ring off my middle finger, and
        C       F
 Put it on the one people put wedding rings on
        Am          G
 And that's the closest I've come to my heart exploding


Bridge:
 F             C
And I wake with your memory over me
     Am         G
That's a real fucking legacy, legacy
 F             C
And I wake with your memory over me
     Am         G
That's a real fucking legacy to leave


Chorus:
  F
The burgundy on my T-shirt
     C
When you splashed your wine into me
      Am
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
  G
So scarlet, it was maroon
  F
The mark they saw on my collarbonе
  C
The rust that grew between tеlephones
  Am
The lips I used to call "home"
  G         F  C Am G
So scarlet, it was maroon


Outro:
     F  C Am G
It was maroon
