G          D  A
I don’t know where to begin
       D          A        G
I know you’re too good for him
         G          D    A
When you drive back into town
             D     A         G
He calls you up to bring you down
            G            D      A
He does not deserve your second chance
               D         A          G
You’re perfect smile and your small hands
      G         D      A
He is much less than a man
         D       A    G
Darling, try and understand
    Bm      A         G
But I don’t think you can

[Pre-chorus]
Bm           A      D        G
Things won’t be the way they were
          Bm        A           D         G
You might lose your friends you might get hurt
       Bm   A        D    G
Who am I to love you in return?
       Bm     A       D         G
But if I stay quiet I can’t get burnt,
               A
it’s what I’ve learned

[Chorus]
      Bm
Cause I’ve been having these dreams were we
D      A
get to talk this through
    Bm
and I’ve been walking these streets like a
D      A
like a goddamn fool
    Bm                                  D     A           G
and I’ve been saying some things that I might regret real soon
    Bm               A                D
But I never meant to fall so hard for you

[Verse 2]
           G      D       A
There’s so much I have to say
    D          A       G
The silence is mine to break
               G    D       A
Cause I’ve not told you the truth
            D        A     G
Oh from the day that I met you
        G        D          A
If this year you drive back east
                 D    A             G
And you find you feel something for me
        G       D         A
I can’t promise that I’ll speak
                    D        A       G
But these words are weighing down on me
    Bm    A      G
And I can barely breathe

[Pre-chorus]
        Bm           A      D        G
Because things won’t be the way they were
         Bm        A         D       G
It’s the one thing that I’ll say for sure
        Bm        A      D    G
Now our lives are moving in reverse
         Bm        A     D        G
But it’s your turn now I spoke up first
              A
Go on make it hurt

[Chorus]
      Bm
Cause I’ve been having these dreams were we
D      A
get to talk this through
    Bm
and I’ve been walking these streets like a
D      A
like a goddamn fool
    Bm                                  D     A           G
and I’ve been saying some things that I might regret real soon
    Bm               A                D
But I never meant to fall so hard for you
              G
And won’t you pray for me

[Bridge]
Bm    A         D      G
Maybe when it’s colder on
        Bm     A       D         G
And the leaves fall as they turn brown
          Bm       A         D      G
And I can tell you what that song’s about
            Bm         A     D          G
But I won’t say that’s how I feel right now
       A
Anyhow

[Chorus]
      Bm
Cause I’m still having these dreams were we
D      A
get to talk this through
    Bm
and I’m still walking these streets like a
D      A
like a goddamn fool
    Bm                                  D        A        G
and I’m still saying some things that I might regret real soon, Oh
      Bm             G       A        D
But I never meant to fall so hard for you
