Verse
G
You
A
You’re out west in the Malibu sun
Throwing your hair back
C
Making those boys come running
G
I guess we both got everything that we wanted
Except us
[Verse]
G
And me
A
I left 18 and never looked back
But sometimes I do when it’s late at night
C
And I find your photograph
I just want closure
G
But the world won’t give me that
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I remember that night
A
When you drove away for the last time
We had tears in our eyes
C
We knew it’d never be
It’d never be
G
What we thought was meant to be, yeah
[Chorus]
G
I know we don’t speak
We may never again
A
But every time I see your car I pretend
G
That we’re all alone
I’m in your front seat
C
Talking ‘bout how life would be after 18
G
And here we are now
As strangers can be
A
Two different places
Both moved on happily
G
You’ll never know
Cuz I’ll never say
C
But you were the greatest thing I gave away
G A G C
[Verse]
G
Are you happy now?
A
I saw you’re with someone else
And he’s got charms and looks
C
I can’t say it doesn’t give me hell
But we’re better off
G
I’ve told myself you’re not the one too many times
You’re just a dream I can’t wake from
[Pre-Chorus]
G A
What are we doing here both acting like strangers?
C
I’ll never forget the night you took my hand and said nobody’s ever changed you like I did
G
Before the tide came sweeping in
[Chorus]
G
I know we don’t speak
We may never again
A
But every time I see your car I pretend
G
That we’re all alone
I’m in your front seat
C
Talking ‘bout how life would be after 18
G
And here we are now
As strangers can be
A
Two different places
Both moved on happily
G
You’ll never know
Cuz I’ll never say
C
But you were the greatest thing I gave away
G A G Db
