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