Chords

Can't find a version that I actually like. These are Uke chords but should work just fine for guitar. Chord placing is approximate, so listen and you should be able to get the timing right. You can also substitute major chords instead of 5s and it sounds okay. F5 --> F E5 --> Em C5 --> C Gm7 should stay the same. Gm7 is a strange chord for the song, but it seems to fit better than other suggestions I've found
    F5   E5   C5  Gm7   
A|--3----2----3----1--
E|--1----0----3----1--
C|--0----4----0----2--
G|--0----0----0----0--

It'll probably take a few more months

             F5      E5   C5 (one strum)
Florida's a long way from Rhode Island

                     F5      E5       C5
I watch her rest her hands inside her lap

                F5            E5         C5
I try to focus hard cause her eyes don't make the frame

   F5    E5          C5
I try to work up the courage 

            F5     E5          C5

Breathing calmly, then trying to catch her breath

You can never tell when they're fucking around
(Chords are the same)
                   F5     E5   C5   
Everything you're feeling is common

                F5         E5  C5   
Even though you never felt so alone

                 F5         E5     C5 
I could probably catch a ride to your house

             F5      E5       C5 (once)
and borrow a bike to get back home

                   F5      E5     C5

And it is probably just my friends fucking around.
