Intro: F G C 

        F            G           C 
I could tell you were planning to stay.  
        F             G              C                              
I could tell that some things hadn't changed.  
             F        Am              Em             
How you were saying my name with that smile on your face,  
      F                     G       C     
Yeah, I could tell you were carried away.  



              F         G             C  
I heard you don't fall asleep in your bed.  
            F             G             C 
I heard you haven't quite found yourself yet.  
               F          Am               Em 
I heard you're out every night with those liquor eyes,  
F               G                     C 
Searching for a good man to treat you right.   



         F              G                  C                  F 
I still listen to those same songs that I showed you a summer ago.  
       C             Am       Em       F             C           G        C 
Do you remember when I drove late that night and you didn't even bother to call?  


          F             G          C  
I saw you at my friends party last night.  
             F             G              C 
You're still searching for something that shines.  
  F              C           Am       Em 
I watched as you cried and I felt satisfied  
    F                 G      C 
and that just doesn't seem right.  



C G F C G F 



     F          G               C  
I've blistered the bottom of my feet,  
           F               G         C                                
While your eyes have grown tired and weak. 
             Am            Em              F         C                  
You got your drink in your hands with your one night stands,   
     F                G             C 
That stuff just never meant much to me.  



          F     G         C      
You layed on my bathroom floor, 
       F             G       C 
With a mouth full of lies to ignore 
        Am            Em          Am          C     
Like my brother would say, you'll realize one day. 
    Am            Em              C 
But I would just like to know for sure.  



          F         G      C 
My friend gave me a silver bill. 
          F           G           C 
He use to keep it for good luck--and Well 
        Am    Em         Am          Em 
Well, I don't believe in things like these, 
      F             G           C 
But I keep it in my left pocket still.  


          F             G         C   
When every weekend is a chance to live, 
        F             G     C 
And you can't wait to do it again. 
               Am         Em            Am                 Em 
You're clearly growing up fast, you've changed all of your plans, 
        F              G                    C 
But I'm still the same kid you fell in love with.
