[verse]
F    F/E          F/D     F/C
If I let myself remember
F    F/E          F/D     F/C
I could sink into nostalgia
F    F/E          F/D     F/C
Spend the evening on the carpet
F    F/E          F/D     F/C
By the shelf with the photo albums
Gm                             C7         F         F/E  F/D  F/C
Think of all the things that I wish I had done with you

[verse]
F        F/E        F/D     F/C
Here’s a box of old letters
F             F/E                   F/D     F/C
To prove that things weren’t always better
F       F/E          F/D     F/C
Found a postcard of a lobster
F       F/E          F/D     F/C
You had written your own caption
Gm                       C7                  F         F/E  F/D  F/C
Somehow it said exactly what I wanted you to say to me
Gm                            C7              F         F/E  F/D  F/C
The world is way too big and perfect for just you and me

[chorus]
    Dm           A7           Bbmaj7
And I don’t know what else to do
Bbm           F                C
I will always root for you


[verse]
F      F/E        F/D     F/C
In the heavy summer swelter
F           F/E     F/D     F/C
We left the animal shelter
F           F/E        F/D     F/C
You asked me if I would drive
F        F/E   F/D     F/C
The car never felt so alive
Gm                       C7                  F         F/E  F/D  F/C
And I looked at you with the cat in your lap
Gm                       C7                  F         F/E  F/D  F/C
The greatest thing I’ve ever seen, the cat in your lap.


[chorus]
    Dm           A7           Bbmaj7
And I don’t know what else to do
Bbm           F                C
I will always root for you


[instrumental verse]


[verse] 
F            F/E          F/D     F/C
You said you like to take pauses
F            F/E          F/D     F/C
You said you like to take pauses

Fmaj7

F            F/E          F/D     F/C
You said you like to take pauses     
Gm                        C7                          F         F/E  F/D  F/C
How is it you always know exactly what I want you to say to me?
Gm                       C7                           F         F/E  F/D  F/C
Somehow you always know exactly what I wish you would say to me
F         F/E  F/D  F/C
Say to me.


[chorus]
    Dm           A7           Bbmaj7
And I don’t know what else to do
Bbm           F                C
I will always root for you
