[Verse 1]
C#maj9
I put on a play in my old house
C#maj9
In my cape, jumping on the old couch
F#maj7
Putting up lights when it's cold out
F#maj7
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
| C#maj9 | % | F#maj7 | % |
Show you my play
C#maj9
Haven't seen the old house lately
C#maj9
Wonder if they found my spaceship
F#maj7
I don't want my own love wasted
F#maj7
Tell me this is what you're saying:
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m7 Fm7
If you both outgrew one another
F# Fm7
I could start now, looking for a lover
D#m7 Fm7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
F# C#maj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
F#maj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
F#/F D#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
F#mmaj7 | C#maj9 | % |
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Verse 2]
C#maj9
I've been on dates, bringing flowers
C#maj9
Tryna' be great for an hour
F#maj7
You and me might go sour
F#maj7
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards
C#maj9
I put on a play in my basement (basement)
C#maj9
Mom and Dad smiling faces (faces)
F#maj7
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)
F#maj7
Guess everything is complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m7 Fm7
If you both outgrew one another
F# Fm7
I could start now, looking for a lover
D#m7 Fm7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
F# C#maj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
F#maj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
F#/F D#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
F#mmaj7 C# F#m
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Post-Chorus]
C# F#m C#
You did everything, everything, everything that you could
F#m C#
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through
A#m G# F#
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
[Outro]
C#maj9
But when I show you my play
F#
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?
F#/F D#m
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay
F#mmaj7 C#
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watching my play
