VERSE 1:
Em F/C G Am
This campfire won’t last forever…
Em F/C G Am
The Hip have only wrote so many songs.
Em F/C G Am
And we can sort of harmonize together -
Em F/C G Am
You hold my hand, as you try to hold on.
VERSE 2:
Em F/C G Am
We can’t stay up north for the summer -
Em F/C G Am
Head back to the city and find a job.
Em F/C G Am
I know my family loves you like their daughter
Em F/C G Am
But I know you feel like I strung you along
CHORUS
Dm Am
At a time you were kissing me,
F/C C C/B
The camera found chemistry; cheering for us in cheap seats.
Dm Am
Driving home I can see you stare at me differently.
F/C C C/B
We’re stuck in the nosebleeds baby.
VERSE 3:
Em F/C G Am
True love never needed luxury.
Em F/C G Am
Our love never needed any pretty scenery.
Em F/C G Am
We embraced the summer heat,
Em F/C G Am
And those walks that took forever through suburban streets.
CHORUS AGAIN
BRIDGE:
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
If you want to leave me baby
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
If you want to leave true love
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
If you want to leave me baby
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
True love is always complicated.
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
Your friends never liked me much at all.
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
There’d be times that I’d come home almost crying,
D/F# G A7sus4 D/B
But she never knew it was always my fault.
CHORUS 2X
