[Verse 1]
Cmaj9
I put on a play in my old house
Cmaj9
In my cape, jumping on the old couch
Fmaj7
Putting up lights when it's cold out
Fmaj7
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
| Cmaj9 | % | Fmaj7 | % |
Show you my play
Cmaj9
Haven't seen the old house lately
Cmaj9
Wonder if they found my spaceship
Fmaj7
I don't want my own love wasted
Fmaj7
Tell me this is what you're saying:
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7 Em7
If you both outgrew one another
F Em7
I could start now, looking for a lover
Dm7 Em7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
F Cmaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
Fmaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
F/E Dm
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
Fmmaj7 | Cmaj9 | % |
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Verse 2]
Cmaj9
I've been on dates, bringing flowers
Cmaj9
Tryna' be great for an hour
Fmaj7
You and me might go sour
Fmaj7
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards
Cmaj9
I put on a play in my basement (basement)
Cmaj9
Mom and Dad smiling faces (faces)
Fmaj7
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)
Fmaj7
Guess everything is complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7 Em7
If you both outgrew one another
F Em7
I could start now, looking for a lover
Dm7 Em7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
F Cmaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
Fmaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
F/E Dm
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
Fmmaj7 C Fm
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Post-Chorus]
C Fm C
You did everything, everything, everything that you could
Fm C
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through
Am G F
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
[Outro]
Cmaj9
But when I show you my play
F
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?
F/E Dm
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay
Fmmaj7 C
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watching my play
