Intro
G G Em G x2
[Verse]
G Em
Betty, I won't make assumptions about
C
Why you switched your homeroom
D
I think it's 'cause of me
G Em
Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard
C
And I passed your house
D
It's like I couldn't breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em
You heard the rumors from Inez
C
You can't believe a word she says
D
Most times, but this time, it was true
Am* G* C* F*
And the worst thing that I ever did
Am* G* C
Is what I did to you
[Chorus]
D G F#m
But if I just showed up at your party
Em
Would you have me?
D
Would you want me?
C Em
Would you tell me to go fuck myself
D
Or lead me to the garden?
G F#m
In the garden, would you trust me
Em D C
If I told you it was just a summer fling?
Em D
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
D
But I know I...
[Verse]
G Em
Betty, I know where it all went wrong
C
Your favorite song was playing
D
From the far side of the gym
G Em
I was nowhere to be found
C
I hate the crowds, you know that
D
Plus, I saw you dance with him
[Pre-Chorus]
G D Em
You heard the rumors from Inez
D C
You can't believe a word she says
D
Most times, but this time, it was true
Am* G* C* F*
And the worst thing that I ever did
Am* G* C
Is what I did to you
[Chorus]
D G D
But if I just showed up at your party
Em
Would you have me?
D
Would you want me?
C Em
Would you tell me to go fuck myself
D
Or lead me to the garden?
G D
In the garden, would you trust me
Em D C
If I told you it was just a summer fling?
Em D
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
G Em C D
But I know I miss you
G Em C D
[Bridge]
Em D
I was walking home on broken cobblestones
C
Just thinking of you when she pulled up
D
Like a figment of my worst intentions
Em D
She said, "James, get in, let's drive"
C
Those days turned into nights
Slept next to her, but
G*
I dreamt of you all summer long
G Em C D x2
[Verse]
C* Am*
Betty, I'm here on your doorstep
G* F*
And I planned it out for weeks now
G*
But it's finally sinking in
G D Em
And Betty, right now is the last time
D C
I can dream about what happens
D
When you see my face again
Am* G* C* F*
And the only thing I want to do
Am* G* C D
Is make it up to you
[Chorus]
G Em C D
Yeah, I showed up at your party
G Em Bm D
Yeah, I showed up at your party
D*
Well, I showed up at your party
Bm*
Will you have me?
A*
Will you love me?
G* D*
Will you kiss me on the front porch
Em* A*
Front of all your stupid friends?
D*
And when you kiss me
D* Bm*
Will it be just like I dreamed it?
A* D
Will it patch your broken wings?
A D Bm E
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I...
A E
Showed up to your party
F#m
Will you have me?
E
Will you love me?
D A
Will you kiss me on the front porch
Bm E
In front of all your stupid friends?
A
And when you kiss me
F#m
Will it be just like I dreamed it?
E D
Will it patch your broken wings?
C# Bm E
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
A E D
But I know I miss you
[Outro]
D A E D
Standing in my car again
D A E D
Kissing in my car again
A E D
Stopped at a streetlight
D*
