[Intro]
E Emaj7 Bsus/G# A2 (2X)
[VERSE 1:]
All the b[E]oys voices cr[Emaj7]acking
Oh, the [Bsus/G#]moaning half tones
[A2]Come summertime,[E] we're [Emaj7]all the same [Bsus/G#]age [A2]here
All the t[E]ension and the[Emaj7] terror
Thin-limbed [Bsus/G#]gorgeous green eyes s[A2]miling
And [E]I'm [Emaj7]going [Bsus/G#]straight to [A2]hell
[Cbannel]
[Bsus]All the [Bsus/A]possibilit[Bsus/G#]y and [Bsus/A]promise j[Bsus]ust w[Bsus/A]eighs on me so[Bsus/G#] heav----[Bsus/A]ily
[CBORUS]
[E]And I try but I'm not convincing
[C#m]Your lips, they pout and twist and
[F#m]I die trying just to keep my[A]self from [B]kissing you
[E]You take in everything with
[B]a subtlety I envy
[F#m]It's somehow all I need just [A]keep me [B]guessing please
[Interlude]
[E] [Emaj7] [Bsus/G#] [A2]
Darling, [E]all of these [Emaj7]awkward jumpstart-[Bsus/G#]stalling conver[A2]sations
[E] [Emaj7] [Bsus/G#] [A2]
Mean much more to me than any-------thing
It comes [E]down to me and [Emaj7]you
And whether [Bsus/G#]we're supposed to or[A2] not,
we still [E]will we're [Emaj7]so much [Bsus/G#]better [A2]off than them
[CBANNEL]
[CBORUS]
[BRIDGE]
[C#m]A look, A laugh, A smile, A second
[A]passes by and I regret it
[B]words just [A]aren't [B]right
[C#m]Sometimes I just can't explain
[A]All the ways you devastate me
[B]Always [A]on my [B]mind
[CBORUS x2]
