CAPO ON 3
G
We were both young when I first saw you
Cadd9
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Em7Cadd9
I'm standing there in the balcony in summer air
*strums or palm mute*
G
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
Cadd9
See you make your way through the crowd
Em7
And say, "Hello"
D
Little did I know...
*picking or strums
Cadd9Dsus4
That I was Romeo, I was throwing pebbles
Em7Dsus4
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
Cadd9
I was crying on the staircase
Dsus4Em7
Begging you, please don't go
D
'Cause you belong with me
G
If you could see
That I'm the one who understands you
D
Been here all along
Am
So why can't you see
C
You belong with me
G
Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
D
All this time how could you not know
AmC -once
Baby, you belong with me
G -once
You belong with me
Em7*
So glad you made time to see me
Cadd9*
How's life, tell me how's your family
G* D* (G & D are picked)
I haven't seen them in a while
GEm7
You've been good, busier than ever
Cadd9
Small talk, work and the weather
GDEm7
Your guard is up and I know why
D
Because the last time you saw me
GCadd9
Is still burned in the back of your mind
Em7DCadd9
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
G
So this is me swallowing my pride
BmC
Standing in front of you saying, "I'm sorry for that night"
GD
I go back to December all the time
G
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
BmC
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
G -once D -once A -palm muted
I go back to December all the time
ED
Someday, I’ll be living in a big old city
AED
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
AED
Oh, someday, I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
AED
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so (mean)
AE
Don't you worry your pretty little mind
F#mD
People throw rocks at things that shine
AED
And life makes love look hard
Why you gotta be so mean
AEF#mD
The stakes are high, the water's rough
But this love is
AEF#mD
We are never ever ever getting back together
(This love is ours)
AE F#M D
We are never ever ever getting back together
(This love is ours)
F#mDE
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
(We are never getting back together)
AEF#m
Shame on me now
DE
Flew me to places I'd never been
(We are never getting back together)
AEF#m
'Till you put me down
DE
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
(We are never getting back together)
AEF#m
Shame on me now
DE -once
Flew me to places I'd never been
I'm feeling 22 2 2 2
D* F#m*
Losing her was blue like I'd never known
E*
Missing her was dark grey all alone
DAE
Forgetting her is like trying to know somebody you never met
DF#mE
Loving her was re ee ed, so red, re ee ed
DF#mE
Loving her was re ee ed, so red, re ee ed
DF#mE
Loving her was re ee ed, so red, re ee ed
DF#mE -once
Loving her was re ee ed, so red
