E A E
you still wear your hair to your shoulder
A Bm A E
you still look like a friday night
A Bm A C#m A
you're still caught somewhere between the plans and the dreams
E F#7 E
so that neither end up turning out right
E A E
and i myself look a few moments older
A Bm A E
when i learned that love is not as simple as i thought
A Bm A C#m A
it starts to feel more real and the wounds all start to heal
E F#7 E
whether i want them to or not
A E
so tell me why you think i should forgive what you did
B B7 E
and ill tell you if i understand
A E C#m
cause you broke the quick-giving heart of a kid
E B E
but youre now coming back to a man
E A E
it means a lot that you came here to speak to me
A Bm A E
and i will listen in ways i never did before
A Bm A C#m A
i'll hear the pause between each word and when your presentations heard
E F#7 E
then i'll need to show you to the door
E A E
cause some people were just meant to be a memory.
A Bm A E
to be called upon to remind us how we've changed
A Bm A C#m A
the way the scattered ever-busy bright lights of a city
E F#7 E
might look off to a distant mountain range
A E
and the guy you know is someone i work hard at keeping hid
B B7 E
and he is very good at sticking to the plan
A E C#m
cause you broke the quick-giving heart of a kid
E B E
but youre now coming back to a man
A E
i might think of you more often then i'm willing to admit
B B7 E
but i cant show every card i'm holding in my hand
A E C#m
cause you broke the quick-giving heart of a kid
E B E
but youre now coming back to a man
E A E
you still wear your hair to your shoulder
A Bm A E
you still look like a friday night
A Bm A C#m A
you're still caught somewhere between the plans and the dreams
E F#7 E
so that neither end up turning out right
