Key: B

Introduction:

difficulty
very easy |||||
       B 
So this is rejection
                   G#m 
  And it's bringing you down
         E 
  He told you that he'd find work soon
                                                         F# 
  Then he stopped coming around
       B 
  That was the summer of sweet nights
                                                 G#m 
  He used to take you for rides
                                                   E 
  But it all changed in the backseat
         F# 
  He came inside
PREChorus
                       G#m   F#           E 
  Well he's seen enough to know
         B           G#m   F#                         E                                 B 
  He's old enough to know what's right from wrong
       G#m                 F#       E         B               F# 
  I know how hard it is to see things through
Chorus
 B                             E 
  Oh no did it rip you apart?
                           G#m 
  To be told we could be kings
                                 E                                   F# 
  When we were damned from the start
 B                           E 
  Oh no did it rip you apart?
                             G#m                   F# 
  They told us we could be kings
                                 E                   F#                                 B 
  When we were damned, damned from the start
VERSE
 B                                                 E 
  We've been living to the left of the dial
                 G#m                                                         E 
  Hoping drinks and denial will keep us here
 B                                             E 
  I'm not promising you some bright side
                                 G#m 
  We're trying to break your stride
                                       E 
  But you asked me, you asked me
                                       B 
  He was gone in an instant
                                                 G#m 
  They say nobody was spared
                                                 E 
  Not gonna tell you he loved you
                                                 F# 
  Not gonna tell you he cared
PREChorus
 E 
  Cause we're all damned
 G#m                         F 
  Open wide and you'll see
                                 E                     F#                               B                 G#m  F#E  B(2x) 
  Cause we're all damned, damned from the start
                                                                            G#m  F#E  B 
  We're damned from the start
