lyrics

You’re a good listener/ Take in every word/ More importantly/ You make me feel heard/ You’re a beautiful disaster/ Wanna hold you hand through it all/ You’re so pretty but you’re really unique/ Wanna be there Every time you speak/ You’re open about your mistakes/ More so than I could do/ Sounds like some people/ They did some things/ I would take this guitar/ Stuff it down their face/ You didn’t give me specifics/ But what you said has me worried/ It’s about time that I let you go/ Maybe we can study or catch a show/ But it won’t be the same/ I’ll face the fact we were never a thing
Bridge GCDC GBCBCDC powerchords
GC powerchords
I’ll take this knife stick it in my throat/ Stifle the screams at night that echo (echo)/ Why’d you gotta go and be so cool/ I liked you but didn’t mean to fall for you, no/ Why’d you gotta go and make me me feel so sane/ Then turn it around and make me go insane/ It’s not like you weren’t up front/ I was a rebound then I fell in love
GCm softly
No, I’m not in love/ I’m just really young/ No, I’m not in love/ I’m just really young/ No, I’ve not in love/ I’m just really dumb/ No, I’m not in love
Not in love
EmBC
It’s not a good time of year for me/ It’s not a good time of year for me
GCm powercords loudly
It’s not a good time of year for me/ It’s not a good time of year for me/ It’s too damn cold and the sky is so bleak/ It’s not a good time of year for me
GC
You’re a good listener/ Take in every word/ More importantly you make me feel heard
