Verse
F#
Running from the suburbs
A#
Skipping heartbeats
Cb A#m
Living by our own front teeth
F#
Put my faith into a number
A#
And push the odds aside
Cb
We swore we'd make it out alive
Cb
But you lied
[Pre-chorus 1]
C# G#m
An old dream still haunts me
F# D#m
A# time machine
[Chorus]
Cb Cb
I knew you then
F# C# A#
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
Cb
I knew you then
F# C# A#
Gold rings, but you never could commit
[Interlude 1]
F# D#m A# Cb

[Verse 2]
F# A#
I heard you're living somewhere upstate with a new life
Cb A#m
Is that really what you had in mind?
F# A#
But I don't wanna let go, and watch it all unfold
Cb
I couldn't if I even tried, and I tried
[Pre-chorus 2]
C# G#m
You left me stuck sixteen
F# D#m
Without a time machine
[Chorus]

I knew you then

Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
