The Story of Us Taylor Swift
Capo 2nd fret
Another song from Taylor Swift's Speak Now (album)
[D] I used to think [A]one day we'd tell the story of [Em]us,
How we met
[G]And the sparks flew instantly
[D]And people would [A]say they're the lucky [Em]ones[G]
[D]I used to know my [A]place was the spot next to [Em]you,
Now I'm searching [G]the room for an empty seat
[D]Cause lately I don't even [A]know what page you're [Em]on[G]
[Em]Oh, a simple [G]complication,
Miscommunicat[D]ions lead [A]to fallout,
[Em]So many things that I [G]wish that you knew
[G]So many walls up [A]I can't break through
[D]Now I'm standing alone [A]in a crowded room
An[Em]d we're not spea[G]king
[D]And I'm dyin' to [A]know
Is it killing yo[Em]u
Like it's killing [G]me?
Yeah
[D]I don't know what to [A]say since a twist of [Em]fate, when it all broke [G]down
[D]And the story of [A]us looks a lot like a[Em] tragedy now[G]
Next chapter
[D] [A] [Em] [G]
[D]How'd we end up this [A]way?
See me nervously [Em]pulling at my clothes and [G]trying to look busy
[D]And you're doing [A]your best to avoid[Em] me[G]
[D]I'm starting to think [A]one day I'll tell the story of [Em]us
Of how I was losing my [G]mind when I saw you here
[D]But you held your [A]pride like you should have [Em]held [G]me,
[Em]Oh I'm scared to see the [G]ending why are we pre[D]tending this is [A]nothing
[Em]I'd tell you I miss you but [G]I don't know how
[G]I've never heard silence [A]quite this loud.
(Chorus)
[D] [A] [Em] [G]
[D]This is looking [A]like a contest
Of [Em]who can act like [G]they care less
[D]But I liked it be[A]tter when you were on [Em]my side[G]
[D]The battle's your h[A]ands now
But I [Em]would lay my ar[G]mor down
[D]If you sa[A]id you'd ra[Em]ther love than [G]fight
[Em]So many things that you [G]wish I knew
[G]But the story of us [A]might be ending soon
Chorus
[D]Now,[A] Now,[Em] Now[G]
Chorus
[G]The End [D]
