[Verse 1]
G#maj9
I put on a play in my old house
G#maj9
In my cape, jumping on the old couch
C#maj7
Putting up lights when it's cold out
C#maj7
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
| G#maj9 | % | C#maj7 | % |
Show you my play
G#maj9
Haven't seen the old house lately
G#maj9
Wonder if they found my spaceship
C#maj7
I don't want my own love wasted
C#maj7
Tell me this is what you're saying:
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m7 Cm7
If you both outgrew one another
C# Cm7
I could start now, looking for a lover
A#m7 Cm7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
C# G#maj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
C#maj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
C#/C A#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
C#mmaj7 | G#maj9 | % |
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Verse 2]
G#maj9
I've been on dates, bringing flowers
G#maj9
Tryna' be great for an hour
C#maj7
You and me might go sour
C#maj7
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards
G#maj9
I put on a play in my basement (basement)
G#maj9
Mom and Dad smiling faces (faces)
C#maj7
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)
C#maj7
Guess everything is complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m7 Cm7
If you both outgrew one another
C# Cm7
I could start now, looking for a lover
A#m7 Cm7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
C# G#maj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play
C#maj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place
C#/C A#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play
C#mmaj7 G# C#m
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Post-Chorus]
G# C#m G#
You did everything, everything, everything that you could
C#m G#
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through
Fm D# C#
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
[Outro]
G#maj9
But when I show you my play
C#
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?
C#/C A#m
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay
C#mmaj7 G#
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watching my play
