 FOR VERSES
 (Guitar 1 Strums chords (Quick Triplets: down, up, down)
 (Guitar 2 Alternating downstrums (, , , )  when Guitar 1 plays /G)
We  knew it all from a little thing
 It was everything in our first minute
 And it took us to another place
 Yeah another place and we fell in it
 Guitar 2: Palm-muted)
How  dare you not remember
 How dare you walk away
We  adored every little thing
 Every little thing would leave us breathless
 Every dawn spelled another day
 And in another day we weren't so restless
 Guitar 2: Palm-muted)
How  dare you not remember
 How dare you walk away
 And I wanted you so much
 Just like I do right now
 I wanted us to be  the one the poets  write their books about
 I wanted it to last
 I wanted to grow old,  but life got in the way
We  walked around in a heavy haze
 We were stuck in days of so much warring
 We got lost in a tricky maze
 Yeah a tricky maze that was so scarring
 Guitar 2: Palm-muted)
How  come you can't remember
 How dare you walk away
Then  you start to add the little things
 Add the little things and trip the mighty
 Now we got a little bitter thing
 A little bitter thing that grew like ivy
 Guitar 2: Palm-muted)
And  how dare you not remember
 How dare you walk away
 And I wanted you so much
 Just like I do right now
 I wanted us to be  the one the poets  write their books about
 I wanted it to last
 I wanted to grow old,  but life got in the way
 And apathy  grows quietly  where rapture  used to fly
 And promises  and certainty  have left  love here to die
 Won't you stay  and don't let this  one fall away
 And I wanted you so much
 Just like I do right now
 I wanted us to be  the one the poets  write their books about
 I wanted it to last
 I wanted to grow old,  but life got in the way
 And I wanted you so much
 Just like I do right now
 I wanted us to be  the one the poets  write their books about
 I wanted it to last
 I wanted to grow old,  but life got in the way
 Yeah  well life  got in the way
