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