Emaj9
I put on a play in my old house

Emaj9
In my cape, jumping on the old couch

Amaj7
Putting up lights when it's cold out

Amaj7
Mom and dad, both seats sold out

          | Emaj9 | % | Amaj7 | % |
Show you my play

Emaj9
Haven't seen the old house lately

Emaj9
Wonder if they found my spaceship

Amaj7
I don't want my own love wasted

Amaj7
Tell me this is what you're saying:
[Pre-Chorus]
      F#m7          G#m7
If you both outgrew one another

       A                   G#m7
I could start now, looking for a lover

      F#m7             G#m7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
A                                                    Emaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play

                                            Amaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place

                                        A/G#                    F#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play

      Ammaj7                                    | Emaj9 | % |
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Verse 2]
Emaj9
I've been on dates, bringing flowers

Emaj9
Tryna' be great for an hour

Amaj7
You and me might go sour

          Amaj7
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards

Emaj9
I put on a play in my basement (basement)

Emaj9
Mom and Dad smiling faces (faces)

    Amaj7
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)

      Amaj7
Guess everything is complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
      F#m7          G#m7
If you both outgrew one another

       A                   G#m7
I could start now, looking for a lover

      F#m7             G#m7
But if love dies, do I fucking bother?
[Chorus]
A                                                    Emaj9
I just really really really really wanna show you my play

                                            Amaj7
And I don't wanna do it for Dad at Dad's new place

                                        A/G#                    F#m
I worked really, really, really, really hard, lemme show you my play

      Ammaj7                                      E     Am
And I don't wanna do it twice, 'cause it's not the same
[Post-Chorus]
E        Am                                         E
 You did everything, everything, everything that you could

      Am                                          E
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through

        C#m                     B                  A
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
[Outro]
                       Emaj9
But when I show you my play

                                                A
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?

                                              A/G#             F#m
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay

    Ammaj7                                              E
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watching my play
