Verse 1:
G I do what you tell me like it's my idea C I came down to find you, pretend that you're here G And I never could replace you, it's too dark to try D C But I look for our memories, and their clothing, and their eyes Am Em D You didn't know, you didn't knowVerse 2:
G You're there when I need you, we talk on the phone C I know that you've been trying to build us a home G Yet I scramble to find one with couches and boys D C But all I hear's an echo, the sound of your voice Am Em D You didn't know, you didn't knowVerse 3:
G You may have more to teach me, but what haven't I heard? C Listening is easy, but learning is earned G I forgive you, and I thank you, you know all the reasons why D C I'm sorry and I love you, all we can do is try Am Em D You didn't know how to raise me G D/F# Em D C Any more than I knew how to grow up Am D Childhood is over, and it wasn't enoughVerse 4:
G But Nina's in the garden and rascal's on the roof C The charges against you, I know I have no proof G So goodbye to the Chelsea, goodbye to the rocketship D There's only room for you and me there C And there's so much more to fit Am Em D You didn't know, you didn't know Am Em D You didn't know, you didn't know Am Em D You didn't know, you didn't know
