Junebug chords by The Wonder Years

Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1
B
 Press my forehead to yours
In a hospital room
                B
You on the paper sheets
                B
Blue like a bruise
B
 You fell asleep in my arms
Deep in the afternoon
                       B
Black x on your brand new skin
                B
Moment of truth
Pre-Chorus
                 F
And I don't pray
So I know it's pathetic
When they wheel you away
I get down on my knees

Chorus
I call you
B
Junebug
                          F
Even though your middle name is August
     B
It's true love
I knew from the minute that I saw you
     B
I'd wake up
                  F
I know your heart
                           B B B B
Like my only friend


Verse 2
B
 The summer sun is in love
With you in the cool wet dawn
                                B
The light rests in your tangled curls
                B
Strawberry blonde
B
 I'm listening to you hum
To tell m? your favorite songs
                           B
Spin around in the neon dusk
             B
Singing along

Pre-Chorus
                F
But wh n I say
That I gotta get going
You put your hand on my face
And you tell me to stay

Chorus
I call you
B
Junebug
                                    F
Even though your middle name is August
     B
It's true love
I knew from the minute that I saw you
     B
I'd wake up
                  F
I know your heart
Like my only friend

Bridge
C#m                              Gm
 But I don't know what to do
               B
With your birthday cards and hospital bracelets
C#m               Gm
 I wanna memorize you
               F
With your hands still small enough
                  F7                    Bdim7F
That they fit in my palms forever


Chorus
I call you
B
Junebug
                          F
Even though your middle name is August
     B
It's true love
I knew from the minute that I saw you
     B
I'd wake up
                  F
I know your heart
                           Gm
Like my only friend
B                          F
'Cause I know your heart
                           B
Like my only friend.
