Intro
F#m C# D A E/G# x2
[Verse 1]
F#m C#
I wish we'd started in the rain
D
So that when it was gray
A E/G# F#m
We'd think it was a fine and normal day

Yeah I think I misbehaved

Somewhere along the way
A E/G# F#m
Now I wish I hadn't strayed my moral lane
[Pre-Chorus]
C#
Cause now I know
Bm
Life is but a poem
D C# F#m
That we write, phrase by phrase
C#
Til' we go
C#7 Bm
To the catacombs
C#
Where we lie
[Chorus]
F#m
It must be July
C#m C# D
'Cause I only wanna ride with my hair down
A
And listen to the sound
F#m
Of people on the town
F#m
It must be July
C#m D
'Cause I only wanna ride with my hair down
D
And listen to the sound
F#m
Of people on the town

I wish we'd started in a rush
D
So if it got too much

My head stays
C# Dmaj7
Living in the middle of the mess I made, I said

I wish I had a bed inside my brain

To the catacombs

Where we lie
