C G(11)
I walked through the door with you, the air was cold
Am F2
But somethin' ' bout it felt like home somehow
C G(11)
And I left my scarf there at your sister' s house
Am F2
And you' ve still got it in your drawer, even now
C G(11)
Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze
Am F2
We' re singing in the car, getting lost upstate
C G(11)
Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
Am F2
And I can picture it after all these days
C
And I know it' s long gone and
G(11)
That magic' s not here no more
Am G(11)
And I might be okay, but I' m not fine at all
F2 G(11) F2/C G(11)
Oh, oh, oh
C G(11)
' Causе there we arе again on that little town street
Am F2
You almost ran the red ' cause you were lookin' over at me
C
Wind in my hair, I was there
G(11) Am F2
I remember it all too well
C G(11)
Photo album on the counter, your cheeks were turning red
Am F2
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin-sized bed
C G(11)
And your mother' s telling stories ' bout you on the tee-ball team
Am F2
You taught me ' bout your past, thinking your future was me
C
And you were tossing me the car keys
G(11) Am
"Fuck the patriarchy" keychain on the ground
F2
We were always skipping town
C
And I was thinking on the drive down
G(11) Am
Any time now, he' s gonna say it' s love
F2
You never called it what it was
C
' Til we were dead and gone and buried
G(11)
Check the pulse and come back
Am
Swearing it' s the same
F2
After three months in the grave
C
And then you wondered where it went to
G(11)
As I reached for you
Am
But all I felt was shame
F2
And you held my lifeless frame
C
And I know it' s long gone and
G(11)
There was nothing else I could do
Am
And I forget about you long enough
G(11) F2 G(11) C G(11)
To forget why I needed to
C G(11)
' Cause here we are again in the middle of the night
Am F2
We' re dancing ' round the kitchen in the refrigerator light
C
Down the stairs, I was there
G(11) Am F2
I remember it all too well
C
And there we are again
G(11)
When nobody had to know
Am
You kept me like a secret
F2
But I kept you like an oath
C
Sacred prayer and we' d swear
G(11) Am F2
To remember it all too well, yeah
C
Well maybe we got lost in translation
G(11)
Maybe I asked for too much
Am
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece
F2
' Til you tore it all up
C
Running scared, I was there
G(11) Am F2
I remember it all too well
C
And you call me up again
G(11)
Just to break me like a promise
Am F2
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
C G(11)
I' m a crumpled up piece of paper lying here
Am F2
' Cause I remember it all, all, all
C
They say "All' s well that ends well"
G(11) Am
But I' m in a new hell every time
F2
You double-cross my mind
C G(11)
You said if we had been closer in age
Am
Maybe it would have been fine
F2
And that made me want to die
C
The idea you had of me, who was she?
G(11) Am
A never-needy, ever lovely jewel
F2
Whose shine reflects on you
C
Not weeping in a party bathroom
G(11)
Some actress asking me what happened
Am
You
F2
That' s what happened: you
C G(11)
You, who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes
Am F2
Sipping coffee like you were on a late night show
C
But then he watched me watch the front door
G(11)
all night, willing you to come
Am
And he said, "it' s supposed to be fun&hellip
F2
Turning 21"
C G(11)
Time won' t fly, it' s like I' m paralyzed by it
Am F2
I' d like to be my old self again, but I' m still trying to find it
C G(11)
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Am F2
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
C G(11)
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
Am F2
' Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
C
You can' t get rid of it
G(11) Am F2
' Cause you remember it all too well, yeah
C G(11)
' Cause there we are again when I loved you so
Am F2
Back before you lost the one real thing you' ve ever known
C
It was rare, I was there
G(11) Am F2
I remember it all too well
C
Wind in my hair, you were there
G(11)
You remember it all
Am
Down the stairs, you were there
F2
You remember it all
C
It was rare, I was there
G(11) Am F2
I remember it all too well
C
And I was never good at telling jokes
Am
But the punchline goes:
F2 G(11)
"I' ll get older, but your lovers stay my age"
C Am
From when your Brooklyn broke my skin and bones
F2 G(11)
I' m a soldier who' s returning half her weight
C Am
And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?
F2 G(11)
Just between us, did the love affair maim you too?
F2
Cause in this city' s barren cold
G(11)
I still remember the first fall of snow
F2
And how it glistened as it fell
F2 C Am
I remember it all too well
F2 G(11)
Just between us did the love affair maim you
C Am
All too well
F2 G(11)
Just between us, do you remember it
C Am
All too well
F2 G(11) C
Just between us, I remember it all too well
( C) Am
Wind in my hair, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
Down the stairs, I was there, I was there
C Am
Sacred prayer, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
It was rare, you remember it (all too well)
C Am
Wind in my hair, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
Down the stairs, I was there, I was there
C Am
Sacred prayer, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
It was rare, you remember it
C Am
Wind in my hair, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
Down the stairs, I was there, I was there
C Am
Sacred prayer, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
It was rare, you remember it
C Am
Wind in my hair, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
Down the stairs, I was there, I was there
C Am
Sacred prayer, I was there, I was there
F2 G(11)
It was rare, you remember it
C Am
