They stole your clothes
Abm
i took your watch
E
i couldnt look you in the eye
B F# Eb (6th) E (7th)
why its always those who you love the most you criticise

Verse 2
B F# Abm E
We stood there throwing ice cream in your hair how i solemly swear
B F# Eb (6th) E (7th)
its the thing in life i regret the most... leaving you standing there
B F# Abm
And if you asked me id pull my eyes out
E
and when i woke up blind
B F# Eb (6th)
if you forgave i would sleep at night
E (7th)
knowing i'd led a good life.
