Verso 1:
Em A
Vintage tee, brand new phone
G
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young…they…assume
A
You know nothing
Em A
Sequined smile, black lipstick
G
Sensual politics
When you are young
A
They assume you know nothing
Pré-Refrão
D A
But I knew you, dancin' in your Levi's
G
Drunk under a streetlight, I
A
I knew you, hand under my sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it better, I
Em
And when I felt like
A
I was an old cardigan
G
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said
A
I was your favorite
Verso 2:
Em
A friend to all
A
Is a friend to none
G
Chase two girls, lose the one
When you are young
A
They assume you know nothing
Pré-Refrão
D
But I knew you
A
Playing hide-and-seek and
G
Giving me your weekends, I
I knew you
A
Your heartbeat on the High Line
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
Em
And when I felt like
A
I was an old cardigan
G
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said
A
I was your favorite
( G Bm A G )
Verso 3:
G
To kiss in cars, in downtown bars
Bm
Was all I needed
A
You drew stars around my scars
G
But now I'm bleedin'
D
'Cause I knew you
A
Steppin' on the last train
G
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
A
Tried to change the ending
Peter losin' Wendy, I
D
I knew you
A
Leavin' like a father
G
Runnin' like water, I
When you are young
A
They assume you know nothing
Ponte:
D
But I knew you'd linger
Like a tattoo kiss
A
I knew you'd haunt
All of my what-ifs
G
The smell of smoke
Would hang around this long
A
'Cause I knew everything
When I was young
D
I knew I'd curse
You for the longest time
A
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
G
I knew you'd miss me
Once the thrill expired
A
And you'd be standin'
In my front porch light
Em
And I knew you'd come back to me
A
And you'd come back to me
G
And you'd come back to me
A
And you'd come back
Em
And when I felt like
A
I was an old cardigan
G
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said
A
I was your favorite
