[Verse 1]
EmI'm like the water when your Dship rolled in that Emnight D
EmRough on the surface, but you Dcut through like a Cknife
Em And if it was an Dopen-shut case
Em I never would've Dknown from that look on your Emface
Lost in your Dcurrent like a priceCless wine
[Chorus]
G The more that you Dsay, the less I Amknow
Wherever you Emstray, I folGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my man
[Verse 2]
EmLife was a willow and it Dbent right to your Emwind D
EmHead on the pillow, I could Dfeel you sneakCin' in
Em As if you were a Dmythical thing
Em Like you were a Dtrophy or a champion Emring
And there was one Dprize I'd chCeat to win
[Chorus]
G The more that you Dsay, the less I Amknow
Wherever you Emstray, I folGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my Gman
You know that my Dtrain could take you Amhome
Anywhere Emelse is holGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my man
[Bridge]
Bm Em AmLife was a willow and it Gbent right to your Bmwind Em
Am They count me out Gtime and time aBmgain Em
AmLife was a willow and it Gbent right to your Bmwind Em
Am But I come back Gstronger than a '90s trend
[Verse 3]
EmWait for the signal, and I'll Dmeet you after Emdark D
EmShow me the places where the Dothers gave Cyou scars
Em Now this is an Dopen-shut case
Em I guess I should've Dknown from the look on your Emface
Every bait-and-Dswitch was a woCrk of art
[Chorus]
G The more that you Dsay, the less I Amknow
Wherever you Emstray, I folGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my Gman
You know that my Dtrain could take you Amhome
Anywhere Emelse is holGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my Gman
The more that you Dsay, the less I Amknow
Wherever you Emstray, I folGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my Gman
You know that my Dtrain could take you Amhome
Anywhere Emelse is holGlow
I'm begging for Dyou to take my Amhand
Wreck my Emplans, that's my Gman
[Outro]
D Hey, that's my Amman Em
That's my Gman D
Am e
Yeah, that's my man

C G Am F
[Verse 1]
C You booked the night train for a Greason
So you could Amsit there in this Fhurt
C Bustling crowds or silent Gsleepers
You're Amnot sure which is Fworse
[Chorus]
Because IC dropped your hand while dancing
G Left you out there standing
Am Crestfallen on the landing
FChampagne problems
C Your mom's ring in your pocket
G My picture in your wallet
Am Your heart was glass, I dropped it
FChampagne problems C G Am F
[Verse 2]
C You told your family for a Greason
You Amcouldn't keep it Fin
C Your sister splashed out on the Gbottle
Now Amno one's celebrFating
[Chorus]
C Dom Pérignon, you brought it
G No crowd of friends applauded
Am Your hometown skeptics called it
FChampagne problems
C You had a speech, you're speechless
G Love slipped beyond your reaches
And AmI couldn't give a reason
FChampagne problems C G Am F
[Instrumental]
C G Am F
[Bridge]
C Your Midas touch on the Chevy Gdoor
November flush and your flannel Amcure
"This dorm was once a madhouse"
I Fmade a joke, "Well, it's made for me"
HowC evergreen, our group of Gfriends
Don't think we'll say that word aAmgain
And soon they'll have the nerve to Fdeck the halls
That we once walked through
COne for the money, two for the show
I Gnever was ready so I watch you go
SomeAmtimes you just don't know the answer
'Til Fsomeone's on their knees and asks you
"She Cwould've made such a lovely bride
What a Gshame she's fucked in the head," they said
But Amyou'll find the real thing instead
She'll Fpatch up your tapestry that I shred
[Chorus]
C And hold your hand while dancing
G Never leave you standing
Am Crestfallen on the landing
F With champagne problems
C Your mom's ring in your pocket
G Her picture in your wallet
Am You won't remember all my
FChampagne problems

Em C
EmGleaming, twinkling
CEyes like sinking
BmShips on waters
DSo inviting, I almost jump in
[Chorus]
But EmI don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like anCticipatin' my face in a red flush
I don't like that Bmanyone would die to feel your touch
Everybody Dwants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to Emlove you
Walk past, quick brush
I don't like slow Cmotion, double vision in rose blush
I don't like that Bmfalling feels like flying 'til the bone crush
Everybody Dwants you
But I don't like a gold rush
[Verse 1]
FWhat must it be Clike to grow up thatG beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like domiFnoes
I see me Cpadding across your Gwooden floors
With my Eagles T-shirt hanging from the Fdoor
[Refrain]
At dinner parties, I call you Cout on your contrarian Gshit
And the coastal town we wandered 'round had nеver seen a love as Fpure as it
And thеn it Cfades into the gray of my Dday-old tea
'Cause it could never be
[Chorus]
But EmI don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like anCticipatin' my face in a red flush
I don't like that Bmanyone would die to feel your touch
Everybody Dwants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to Emlove you
Walk past, quick brush
I don't like slow Cmotion, double vision in rose blush
I don't like that Bmfalling feels like flying 'til the bone crush
Everybody Dwants you
But I don't like a gold rush
[Verse 2]
FWhat must it be Clike to grow up thatG beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like domiFnoes
My mind turns Cyour life into Gfolklore
I can't dare to dream about you anyFmore
[Refrain]
At dinner parties, I won't call you Cout on your contrarian Gshit
And the coastal town we never found will never see a love as Fpure as it
'Cause it Cfades into the gray of my Dday-old tea
'Cause it will never be

[Verse 1]
G If I wanted to know Dwho you were Ahanging with
While I was gone, I would've Dasked you
G It's the kind of cold, Dfogs up Awindshield glass
But I felt it when I Dpassed you
G There's an ache in you, Dput there by the Aache in me D
G But if it's all the same to Dyou
It's the Asame to me
[Chorus]
So Awe could call it Deven
You could call me "babe" for the Aweekend D
'Tis the damn season, Awrite this Bmdown
I'm stayin' at my parents' Ahouse
And the Bmroad not taken looks real good now
And it Aalways leads to you Dand my Ahometown
[Verse 2]
G I parkеd my car Dright between the AMethodist
And thе school that used to Dbe ours G
The holidays Dlinger like Abad perfume
You can run, but only Dso far G
I escaped it too, reDmember how you Awatched me leave D
G But if it's okay with youD, it's oAkay with me
[Chorus]
AWe could call it Deven
You could call me "babe" for the Aweekend D
'Tis the damn season, Awrite this Bmdown
I'm stayin' at my parents' Ahouse
And the Bmroad not taken looks real good now
D Time flies, messy as the Amud on your Dtruck tires
Now I'm missing your smile, Ahear me Bmout
We could just ride around A
And the Bmroad not taken looks real good now
And it Aalways leads to you Dand my Ahometown
[Bridge]
D Sleep in half the AdayBm just for old times' sake
A I won't ask you to Dwait if you Adon't ask me to stay
So I'll go back to DL.A. and the so-called Afriends
Who'll write Dbooks about me if I ever Amake it
And Bmwonder about the only soul A
Who can Dtell which smiles I'm fakin'
And the Aheart I know I'm breakin' is my own
To Gleave the warmest bed DI've ever Aknown
We could call it Geven D A
Even thoughG I'm leaving D A
And I'll be yours for the Gweekend
D'Tis the damnA season
[Chorus]
AWe could call it Deven
You could call me "babe" for the Aweekend D
'Tis the damn season, Awrite this Bmdown
I'm stayin' at my parents' Ahouse
And the Bmroad not taken looks real good now
D Time flies, messy as the Amud on your Dtruck tires
Now I'm missing your smile, Ahear me Bmout
We could just ride around A
And the Bmroad not taken looks real good now
And it Aalways leads to you Dand my Ahometown D

It Galways leads to you Dand my Ahometown D G D A D G

I made you my temple, my mural, my Dsky
Now I'm beggin' for footnotes in the Emstory of your life
Drawin' hearts in the byCline
Always takin' up too much space or Emtime
You assume I'm fine, but what would you Ddo if I [IG]
[Chorus]
Break free and leave us in ruCins?
Took this dagger in me and removed it G
Gain the weight of you, then loDse it
Believe me, I could Gdo it
If it's all in my head, tell me Cnow
Tell me I've got it wrong sGomehow
I know my love should be ceDlebrated
But you tolerate Emit C Em

Bm Break my soul in two looking for you
But you're Cright here
D If I can't relate to you anymore
Then who am I reEmlated to?C
Bm And if this is the long haul
How'd we Cget here so soon?
D Did I close my fist around something delicate?
Did EmI shatter you?C

Bm The question pounds my head
What's a lifetime of aCchievement
D If I pushed you to the edge
But you were too polite to Emleave me?C

Who coaxed you into paradise and Cleft you there?
D Will you forgive my soul
When you're too wise to trust me and tEmoo old to care? C
[Chorus]
'Cause Bmwe were like the mall before the Cinternet
It was the one Dplace to be
The mischief, the gift-wrapped suBmburban dreams
CSorry for not winning you an Darcade ring

CLost again with no surprises
BmDisappointments, close your eyes
And it gets colder and Ccolder
When the sun goDes down
[Bridge]
Bm Were you waiting at our Cold spot
In the tree line by the Dgold clock
Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Bm Were you standing in the Challway
With a big cake, happy Dbirthday
Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
A uniBmverse away
And when I Cgot into the accident
The Dsight that flashed before me was your face
Bm But when I walked up to the podium
I Dthink that I forgot to say your name

[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
FFatefully C
I tried to Ampick my battles 'til the Gbattle picked me
F Misery C
Like the Amwar of words I Gshouted in my sleep
F And you Cpassed right by
AmI was in the alley, surGrounded on all sides
F The knife Ccuts both ways
If the Amshoe fits, walk in it 'til your Ghigh heels break
[Chorus]
F And I fell from the Cpedestal
Right down the Amrabbit hole
Long story Gshort, it was a bad tiFme
Pushed from the Cprecipice
Clung to the Amnearest lips
Long story Gshort, it was the wrong guFy
[Post-Chorus]
Now I'm Call about you
Am I'm Gall about you, ahC
YeFah, yeGah
I'm Call about you, ah
YeFah, yeEmah C
[Verse 2]
FActually C
I always Amfelt I must look Gbetter in the rear view
F Missing me C
At the Amgolden gates they Gonce held the keys to
F When I Cdropped my sword
I Amthrew it in the bushes and Gknocked on your door
F And we Clive in peace
But if Amsomeone comes at us, Gthis time, I'm ready
[Chorus]
F'Cause I fell from the Cpedestal
Right down the Amrabbit hole
Long story Gshort, it was a bad tiFme
Pushed from the Cprecipice
Clung to the Amnearest lips
Long story Gshort, it was the wrong guFy
[Post-Chorus]
Now I'm Call about you
Am I'm Gall about you, ahC
YeFah, yeGah
I'm Call about you
[Bridge]
Am No Emmore keepin' Dmscore
Now I just Amkeep you warm [Keep you warm]
No Emmore tug of Fwar
Now I just Gknow there's more [AmKnow there's more]
No Emmore keepin' Dmscore
Now I just Amkeep you warm [Keep you warm]
And my Emwaves meet your Fshore
Ever and Gevermore
[Verse 3]
F Past me C
I wanna Amtell you not to get Glost in these petty tFhings
Your nemeseCs
Will deAmfeat themselves beGfore you get the chance to Fswing
And he's Cpassing by
AmRare as the glimmer of a Gcomet in the sky
F And he Cfeels like home
If the Amshoe fits, walk in it Geverywhere you go
[Chorus]
C And I fell from the Fpedestal
Right down the Grabbit hole
Long story Cshort, it was a bad time
Pushed from the Fprecipice
Climbed right back Gup the cliff
Long story Cshort, I survived
[Post-Chorus]
C Now I'm Fall about you
[And Gnow] I'm Call about you, ah
[And now] I'm Fall about you
Am [And now] I'm Call about you, ah

C Gray November
I've been down since FJuly
C Motion capture
Put me in a Fbad light
C I replay my footsteps on each stepping Fstone
Trying to find the one where I went Cwrong
Writing letters
Addressed to the Ffire
[Chorus]
And I was Ccatchin' my breath
Starin' out an open window, Fcatchin' my death
And I Ccouldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peFculiar
That this pain would be for

[Verse 2]
C Hey, December
Guess I'm feeling Funmoored
C Can't remember
What I used to Ffight for
C I rewind thе tape, but all it does is Fpause
On thе very moment all was lost
C Sending signals
To be double-Fcrossed
[Chorus]
And I was Ccatchin' my breath
Barefoot in the wildest winter, Fcatchin' my death
And I Ccouldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peFculiar
That this pain would be for

F Oh, can Gwe just get a pause?
Am To be certain we'll be tall again
F Whether Gweather be the frost
Am Or the violence of the dog days
F I'm on Gwaves, out being tosAmsed
Is there a line that I could just go Fcross?
And when I was shipwrecked [GCan't think of all the cost now]
I Amthought of you [All the things that will be lost noFw]
In the cracks of Glight [Can we just get a pause?]
I Amdreamed of you [To be certain we'll be tall agaFin]
[If you think of all the cost]
It was real eGnough [Whether weather be the frost]
To Amget me through [Or the violence of the dog days]

CAPO: 3
[Verse 1]
DFriends break up, friends get married
EmStrangers get born, strangers get buried
CTrends change, rumors fly through new skies
But GI'm right where you Dleft me
DMatches burn after the other
EmPages turn and stick to each other
CWages earned and lessons learned
But I, GI'm right where you Dleft me
[Pre-Chorus]
DHelp, I'm still at the restauEmrant
Still sitting in a corner I Chaunt
Cross-legged in the dim light
GThey say, "What a sad sight," DI
DI swear you could hear a hair pin Emdrop
Right when I felt the moment Cstop
Glass shattered on the white cloth
GEverybody moved on, DI, AmI stayed there
Dust collected on my Gpinned-up hair
DThey expected me to Amfind somewhere
Some perspective, but I Gsat and stared Dright where
[Chorus]
You Dleft me, you Emleft me no, oh, you Cleft me no
You Gleft me no choice but to Dstay here forever
You Dleft me, you Emleft me no, oh, you Cleft me no
You Gleft me no choice but to Dstay here forever

Bm Did you ever hear about the girl who got Cfrozen?
Time went on for everybody else, she won't Dknow it
She's still twenty-three inside her Cfantasy
How it was supGposed to be
Bm Did you hear about the girl who lives in deClusion?
Breakups happen every day, you don't have to Dlose it
She's still twenty-three inside her Cfantasy
And Gyou're sitting in Dfront of me
[Pre-Chorus]
At the restauEmrant
When I was still the Cone you want
Cross-legged in the dim light
GEverything was just right, DI
DI could feel the mascara Emrun
You told me that you met someCone
Glass shattered on the white cloth
GEverybody moved oDn
DHelp, I'm still at the restauEmrant
Still sitting in a corner I Chaunt
Cross-legged in the dim light
GThey say, "What a sad sight," DI, AmI stayed there
Dust collected on my Gpinned-up hair
DI'm sure that you got a Amwife out there
Kids and Christmas, but I'm Gunaware 'cause I'm Dright where
I Amcause no harm, mind my business
If our Glove died young, I Dcan't bear witness, and it's Ambeen so long
If you ever think you Ggot it wrong, I'm Dright where
[Chorus]
You Dleft me, you Emleft me no, oh, you Cleft me no
You Gleft me no choice but to Dstay here forever
You Dleft me, you Emleft me no, oh, you Cleft me no

[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C When the dinner is Amcold and the chatter gets Fold
You ask for the Gtab
C Or that moment aAmgain, he's insisting that Ffriends
Look at each other Glike that
C When the words of a Amsister come back in Fwhispers
That prove she was Gnot
C In fact what she Amseemed, not a twin from your Fdreams
She's a crook who was Gcaught
[Chorus]
That Amold familiar Gbody ache
The Fsnaps from the same little breaks in your souCl Am
You FknowG when it's time to Cgo Am F G
[Verse 2]
C Twenty years at your Amjob, then the son of the Fboss
Gets the spot that was Gyours
C Or trying to stay for the Amkids, when keeping it how it Fis
Will only break their Ghearts worse
[Chorus]
That Amold familiar Gbody ache
The Fsnaps from the same little breaks in your souAml G
You EmknowF when it's time to Cgo
[Post-Chorus]
G Sometimes, givin' Cup is the strong thing
F Sometimes, Cto run is the brave thing
G Sometimes, walkin' Cout is the one thing
F That will Cfind you the right thing
G Sometimes, givin' Cup is the strong thing
F Sometimes, Cto run is the brave thing
G Sometimes, walkin' Cout is the one thing
F That will Cfind you the right thing
[Verse 3]
C Fifteen Amyears, fifteen million Ftears
Begging 'til my knees Gbled
C I gave it my Amall, he gave me nothin' at Fall
Then wondered why I Gleft
C Now he sits on his Amthrone in his palace of Fbones
Praying to his Ggreed
C He's got my Ampast frozen behind Fglass
But I've got Gme
[Chorus]
That Amold familiar Gbody ache
The Csnaps from the same little Fbreaks in your soulAm G
I knowC when it's time to goG
[Post-Chorus]
Sometimes, givin' Cup is the strong thing
F Sometimes, Cto run is the brave thing
