Verse
C Am Em
It doesn't matter if I don't get to keep you
C Am Em
It doesn't matter if I live or die
C Am Em
It doesn't matter that your boyfriend left you
Dm G F
And that summer only lasted one day
[Verse 2]
C Am Em
I'm in the mirror with the Rickenbacker twelve string
C Am Em
My good friend who can really understand
C Am Em
But everyone's got relationship problems
Dm G F
I would surely go wrong with you, but why wouldn't I?
[Verse 3]
C Am Em
It doesn't matter if I don't get to keep you
C Am Em
It doesn't matter if I live or die
C Am Em
I'm in the mirror with my best friend twelve string
Dm G F
The day that you will love me, will never arrive
[Chorus]
Am G
We were almost it
Dm F
We almost went somewhere
Am G Dm
Charm of the tear-down left behind
Am G
Not to be who I am
Dm F
Takes a lot of work this time
Am G Dm
To lock everything back up inside
[Verse 4]
C Am Em
Doesn't matter if I don't get to keep you
C Am Em
Doesn't matter if I live or die
C Am Em
I'm in the mirror with my best friend's twelve string
Dm
Trying to worship sixties California
G F
In our not so contemporary ways
[Verse 5]
C Am Em
Everybody's got their heart in a wheelchair
C Am Em
And now I finally come up for air
C Am Em
The lazy eye of the sun comes up slowly
Dm G F
And a million candle-lit cities disappear
[Verse 6]
C Am Em
Doesn't matter if I don't get to keep you
C Am Em
It doesn't matter if I live or die
C Am Em
Doesn't matter that your boyfriend left you
Aaaahh, Aaaah
Dm G F C
But it doesn't matter that I love your smile
