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