Misc Mashups – Taylor Swift - August - Smallest Man (Guitar)

    G
 I walked through the door with you

D
 The air was cold

     Em                            C
 But something about it felt like home somehow

      G                             D
 And I left my scarf there at your sister's house

       Em                       C
 And you still got it in your drawer even now

           G                       D
 Oh your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze

        Em                         C
 We're singing in the car getting lost upstate

  G                               D
 Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place

        Em                   C
 And I can picture it after all these days

        G
 And I know it's long gone

          D
 And that magic's not here no more

        Em
 And I might be okay

            D             C   D   Em   D
 But I'm not fine at all

         G                         D
 Cause there we are again on that little town street

     Em                                  C
 You almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over me

             G                    D                 Em     C
 Wind in my hair I was there I remember it all too well

       G                           D
 Photo album on the counter your cheeks were turning red

                  Em                            C
 You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin-size bed

       G                                         D
 Your mother's telling stories about you on the tee ball team

      Em                                    C
 You tell me about your past thinking your future was me

         G
 And I know it's long gone

                D
 And there was nothing else I could do

        Em
 And I forget about you long enough

     D                   C   D   Em   D
 To forget why I needed to

         G                        D
 Cause there we are again in the middle of the night

        Em                                  C
 We're dancing around the kitchen in the refrigerator light

             G                    D                Em     C
 Down the stairs I was there I remember it all to well

                   G                          D
 And maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much

                  Em                              C
 But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up

           G                     D                 Em     C
 Running scared I was there I remember it all too well

          G                         D
 And you call me up again just to break me like a promise

    Em                     C
 So casually cruel in the name of being honest

         G                          D
 I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here

                     Em       C       G     D    Em    C
 Cause I remember it all all all too well

D                                            G
 Back when we were still changin' for the better

                Em
Wanting was enough

                   A
For me, it was enough

                 D
To live for the hope of it all

                        G
Canceled plans just in case you'd call

                               Em
And say "Meet me behind the mall"

                    A
So much for summer love and saying "Us"

                    D         G
'Cause you weren't mine to lose

                     Em     A
You weren't mine to lose, no

  D
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"

         G
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call

Em                                                     A
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all)

                    D           G
For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all

         Em                      A
(For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all)

G  Em  D  C x 2
(to get into rhythm)

                 G                      Em
Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?

                     D                   C
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?

                   G                             Em
Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?

                      D                     C
In fifty years, will all this be declassified?

                            G
And you'll confess why you did it

                 Em
And I'll say, "Good riddance"

                  D                     C
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden

                          G
I would've died for your sins

                      Em
Instead, I just died inside

                 D                         C
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time

                 G                             Em
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars

                D                    C
You crashed my party and your rental car

                           G
You said normal girls were boring

                         Em
But you were gone by the morning

                    D
You kicked out the stage lights

                   C
But you're still performing

                       G
And in plain sight you hid

                      Em
But you are what you did

                D                       C
And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive

                          G*
The smallest man who ever lived
