C
  Forgive me, Peter

    C/B
My lost fearless leader

     Am7
In closets like cedar

    Gsus4                          Fmaj7
Preserved from when we were just kids

                   Gsus4    G
Is it something I did?

     C
The goddess of timing

      C/B
Once found us beguiling

     Am7
She said she was trying

   Gsus4
Peter, was she lying?

My ribs get the feeling she did

   Am         G       F
And I didn't wanna come down

I thought it was just goodbye for now

Then you were gonna come find me

   But I knew you, dancin' in your Levi's

Baby, kiss it better, I

   Under someone's bed

   You put me on and said I was your favorite

   A friend to all is a friend to none

   Chase two girls, lose the one
When you are young, they assume you

know nothing
[Chorus]
C
   But I knew you

                                G

   Giving me your weekends, I
I knew you

   Your heartbeat on the High Line
Once in twenty lifetimes and

Words from the mouths of babes

Promises oceansssss deep

But never to keep

Oh, never to keep
[Verse III]
        C
Are you still a mind reader?

  C/B
A natural scene stealer?

      Am7
I've heard great things, Peter

     Gsus4                  Fmaj7
But life was always easier on you

               Gsus4    G
Than it was on me
But [Bridge]
                    F
   To kiss in cars, and downtown bars

                      Am
   Was all we needed

                    G
   You drew stars around my scars

                        F
   But now I'm bleedin'

C
   'Cause I knew you

                               G
   Steppin' on the last train

                                F
   Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
                            G
   Tried to change the ending
Peter losin' Wendy, I
C
   I knew you

                           G                  F
   Leavin' like a father, runnin' like water, I
When you are young, they assume you
           G
know nothing

                                  C
   But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss

                          G
   I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs

                          F
   The smell of smoke would hang around this long

                              G
   'Cause I knew everything when I was young

                      C
   I knew I'd curse you for the longest time

                  G
   Chasin' shadows in the grocery line

                          F
   I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired

                           G
   And you'd be standin' in my front porch light

             C                            Am
And I won't confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn

        F                  G
As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return

           C                           Am
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned

        F                         G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned

          C                              Am
And you said you'd come and get me, but you were twenty-five

          F                      G
And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired

 C                          Am
Lost to the "Lost Boys" chapter of your life
[Outro]
F                           G
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried

    Am                       G
To hold on (Hold on) to the days (To the days)

               F
When you were mine

F                                   Am
when I felt like I was an old cardigan

                          C
   Under someone's bed and

                                      G
   You put me on and said I was your favorite

         Am                    G
But the woman who sits by the window

                F           Dm
Has turned out   the light
