[Verse 1]
Well, it Bball began in the Gmback of her car
I was Ebjust sixteen, but I Ffell so hard
Well, the Bbyears went by and she Gmheld my heart
But her Eblove ran dry and we Ffell apart
[Pre-Chorus]
F I felt her growing diGmstant
I knew her love was sEbhifting
And all that I could say was
[Chorus]
Don't Bbtell me that it's over, the book of you and I
AmNow you've Gmscribbled out my name
And you've erased my favorite lines Fsus
There Ebwere so many chapters that we never got to write Dm
Like Fsuscereal for dinner and sFtaying up all night
I Bbremember where we started, I remember how you looked Am
But now I'm Gmmissing bits and pieces from the pages that you tookFsus
You Ebdidn't give a reason, and I'll forever wonder why Dm
We Fsusnever got to finish the Fbook of you and I Bb
[Verse 2]
Well, I Bbbought a pen and I Gmturned the page
Then I wrEbote about how I wish you'd stayed
I said Bball the things that I Gmnever got to say
Maybe Ebwhen it's done I will feel okay
[Pre-Chorus]
FThat she had grown so dGmistant
And that her love had Ebshifted
I wish she felt the same
[Chorus]
Don't Bbtell me that it's over, the book of you and I
AmNow you've sGmcribbled out my name
And you've erased my favorite lines Fsus
