Before It Cifras

[Intro]
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/F
 
 
[Verse 1]
          Am
You were older than me in the fourth grade
        Am/G
I'd hang on to every word that you sang
       Am/F#                          Am/F
Like tomorrow it'd all start to fade
         Am
You had eyes brown like chocolate diamonds
         Am/G
But your smile was empty like a distant island
Am/F#                              Am/F
Gaze stretched out towards the horizon
 
 
[Verse 2]
            Am
Catching fireflies in my backyard
Am/G
Knees are beat-up, broken, scarred
     Am/F#                           Am/F
From falling, but it's not that hard
     Am
To forget the pain, it's temporary
    Am/G
Sometimes the dark isn't that scary
Am/F#                          Am/F
Air tastes sweet like candied cherries
 
 
[Chorus]
            C
Why did it end?
    G     Dm     F
I didn't want it to
         C G    Dm  F
But it's over now
       C
Wasted my time
G       Dm   G
Falling over you
         C G   Dm F
But it's over now
 
 
[Refrain]
          C                  G
You went mean, and I bore it
          Dm                 F
You went cold, shouldered it
              C               G
I tried and tried to ignore it
           Dm                G
Can we go back to before it?
          C                  G
You went mean, and I bore it
          Dm                 F
You went cold, shouldered it
              C               G
I tried and tried to ignore it
           Dm                G
Can we go back to before it?
          C                  G
You went mean, and I bore it

You went cold, shouldered it
              C               G
I tried and tried to ignore it
           Dm                G
Can we go back to before it?
          C                 G
You went mean, and I bore it

You went cold, shouldered it
             Am7              G
