[Intro] C C/B Am Gsus4 F Gsus4 [Verse 1]
C       C/B            Am
 Betty, I won’t make assumptions

      Gsus4                 F
About why you switched your homeroom

                          Gsus4
But I think it’s cause of me

C       C/B            Am
 Betty, one time I was riding

      Gsus4             F
on my skateboard when I passed your house

                     Gsus4
It’s like I couldn’t breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
C             C/B          Am
You heard the rumors from Inez

            Gsus4            F
You can’t believe a word she says most times

                     Gsus4
But this time it was true
[Verse 1]
C          F                     Dm
  Salt air, and the rust on your door

                        G
I never needed anything more

C         F             Dm
  Whispers of "Are you sure?"

                    G
Never have I ever before
[Chorus]
              C                 C/B
But if I just showed up at your party

          Am                 G
Would you have me? Would you want me?

          F             Am
Would you tell me to go fuck myself

   G
Or lead me to the garden?

       C                C/B
In the garden would you trust me

     Am               G            F
If I told you it was just a summer thing?

         Am           G
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything

                  C
But I know I miss you
[Instrumental] C/B Am Gsus4 F F Gsus4 [Verse 2]
C       C/B             Am
 Betty, I know where it all went wrong

     Gsus4             F
Your favorite song was playing

                         Gsus4
from the far side of the gym

C      C/B           Am
 I was nowhere to be found

           Gsus4
I hate the crowds you know that

F                          Gsus4
 Plus I saw you dance with him
[Pre-Chorus]
C             C/B          Am
You heard the rumors from Inez

            Gsus4            F
You can’t believe a word she says most times

                     Gsus4
But this time it was true
[Verse 2]
  C           F         Dm
Your back beneath the sun

                              G
Wishin' I could write my name on it

  C             F                 Dm
Will you call when you're back at school?

                      G
I remember thinkin' I had you
[Chorus]
              C                 C/B
But if I just showed up at your party

          Am                 Gsus4
Would you have me? Would you want me?

          F             Am
Would you tell me to go fuck myself

   Gsus4
Or lead me to the garden?

       C                C/B
In the garden would you trust me

     Am              Gsus4         F
If I told you it was just a summer thing?

         Am           Gsus4
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything

                  C
But I know I miss you
[Instrumental] C/B Am Gsus4 F F G [Bridge]
Am                    G
I was walking home on broken cobblestones

              F
Just thinking of you when she pulled up

       G
Like a figment of my worst intentions
[Bridge]
  C                                         F
Back when we were still changin' for the better

                Dm
Wanting was enough

                G
For me, it was enough

Am                            G
She said, "James get in let’s drive." Those days

            F
turned into nights, slept next to her

   G                           C
But I dreamt of you all summer long

                         F
Canceled plans just in case you'd call

                               Dm
And say "Meet me behind the mall"

                    G
So much for summer love and saying "Us"

                    C         F
'Cause you weren't mine to lose

                    Dm       G
You weren't mine to lose, oh
[Instrumental] C/B Am Gsus4 F F Gsus4 Am G F Fm [Verse 3]
C       C/B              Am
 Betty, I’m here on your doorstep

      Gsus4              F
And I planned it out for weeks now

                         Gsus4
But it’s finally sinking in

C       C/B              Am
 Betty, right now is the last time

      Gsus4            F
I can dream about what happens when

                Gsus4
You see my face again

    Am   G       C       F
The only thing I want to do

   Am      G     F    G
Is make it up to you

     C                 C/B  Am Gsus4 F  Em Gsus4
So I showed up at your party

     C                    C/B  Am Gsus4 F  Em
Yeah, I showed up at your party

               G
But do you remember

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

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

 Dm                                                       G
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
[Chorus]
        D                 D/C#
Yeah, I showed up at your party

         Bm               A
Will you have me will you love me

         G              D/F#
Will you kiss me on the porch

            Em               A
In front of all your stupid friends?

       D                D/C#
If you kiss me, will it be

            Bm
just like I dreamed it

        A                 G
Will it patch your broken wings

         D/F#         Em            A
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything

             D        A G
But I know I miss you
[Outro]
G                 D        A G
 Standing in your cardigan

G              D         A G
 Kissing in my car again

G
Stopped at a streetlight

            D        D/F# G
you know, I miss you
