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