[Verse 1] G You told me to skip school, C To go with you to the movies G You knew you were uncool C But you thought you could fool me G Em D They play oldies in the afternoon for the elderly C And me and you G Em D Fred and Ginger, black and white. I watch you watch C It's a wonderful life
[Instrumental] G C ............ G C ............
[Verse 2] G You called me cerebral, C I didn't know what you meant Em But now I do D C Would it have killed you to call me pretty instead? G Em D C I'm in a second story window and you're yelling at me "Stella!" G Em And I'm laughing cause you think you're Brando D But you'll never come close
[Chorus] G D All I need for you to admit Em C Is that you never knew me like you thought you did G D You never knew me like you thought you did C Like you thought you did
[Instrumental] G/Gb Cadd9 ................ G/Gb Cadd9 ................
[Verse 3] G You say, "Here's lookin' at you kid," Cadd9 Thinking I wouldn't understand the reference Em You admit, you think you're fated D I'll be lucky if I'm were your third wife G ..That's only something you would say in the car Cadd9 We've been breathing the same air for too long Em If the snow wasn't coming down so hard, D I would open the door and walk home, It's only a couple miles. G Em .....What could go wrong D If I hitch a ride with a guy in a pickup Cadd9 D Who doesn't know left from right from wrong?..
[Chorus] G D All I need for you to admit Em C Is that you never knew me like you thought you did G D You never knew me like you thought you did.. Am Cadd9 Like you thought you did...... G D All I need for you to admit Em Cadd9 Is that you never knew me like you thought you did G D You never knew me like you thought you did Am Cadd9 Like you thought you did.......
[Outro] Am C ......
