[Verse 1]
Dmaj9
I put on a play in my old house
Dmaj9
In my cape, jumping on the old couch
Gmaj7
Putting up lights when it's cold out
Gmaj7
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
| Dmaj9 | % | Gmaj7 | % |
Show you my play
Dmaj9
Haven't seen the old house lately
Dmaj9
Wonder if they found my spaceship
Gmaj7
I don't want my own love wasted
Gmaj7
Tell me this is what you're saying:
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 F#m7
If you both outgrew one another
G F#m7
I could start now, looking for a lover
Em7 F#m7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
G Dmaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
Gmaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
G/F# Em
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
Gmmaj7 | Dmaj9 | % |
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Verse 2]
Dmaj9
I've been on dates, bringing flowers
Dmaj9
Tryna' be great for an hour
Gmaj7
You and me might go sour
Gmaj7
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards
Dmaj9
I put on a play in my basement (basement)
Dmaj9
Mom and Dad smiling faces (faces)
Gmaj7
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)
Gmaj7
Guess everything is complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 F#m7
If you both outgrew one another
G F#m7
I could start now, looking for a lover
Em7 F#m7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
G Dmaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
Gmaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
G/F# Em
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
Gmmaj7 D Gm
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Post-Chorus]
D Gm D
You did everything, everything, everything that you could
Gm D
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through
Bm A G
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
[Outro]
Dmaj9
But when I show you my play
G
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?
G/F# Em
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay
Gmmaj7 D
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watching my play
