IntroAAC#mB x2
VerseAAC#m
Do you remember the taste of my lips that night
B
I stole a bit of my mother's perfume
AA
Cause I remember when my father put his fist through
C#mB
The wall that separated the dining room
AA
And I remember the fear in your eyes
C#mB
The very first time we snuck into the city pool
AAC#m
Late December with my heart in my chest and the clouds of my breath
B
Didn't know where we were running to
B
But don't look back
ChorusA
We'll be looking for sunlight
A
Or the headlights
C#mB
Till our wide eyes burn blind
A
We'll be lacing the same shoes
A
That we've worn through
C#mB
To the bottom of the line
A
And we know that we're headstrong
A
And our heart's gone
C#mB
And the timing's never right
AA
But for now let's get away
C#mB
On a Roman holiday
[Break]
AAC#mBVerseAA
Could you imagine the taste of your lips
C#mB
If we never tried to kiss on the drive to Queen's
AA
Cause I imagine the weight of your ribs
C#mB
If you lied between my hips in the backseat
AA
I imagine the tears in your eyes
C#mB
The very first night I'll sleep without you
AA
And when it happens I'll be miles away
C#m
And a few months late
B
Didn't know where I was running to
B
But I won't look back
ChorusA
We'll be looking for sunlight
A
Or the headlights
C#mB
Till our wide eyes burn blind
A
We'll be lacing the same shoes
A
That we've worn through
C#mB
To the bottom of the line
A
And we know that we're headstrong
A
And our heart's gone
C#mB
And the timing's never right
AA
But for now let's get away
