verse 1 Bb Gm We never had coffee table books or dinner parties Bb Gm We always had hazy nights and sex, clichés in Paris Eb Don't disturb on the top floor F Getting high by the window Eb In bed with your eyes locked into mine F How perfect was it? Bb 9th of October, I always remember Gm No bad things had happened then Bb Honestly, you never thought you'd fall for me Gm But somehow you got pulled in Eb Livin' so fast, makin' memories last F 'Til our hearts couldn't hold no more Eb Hear you explodin' while I am implodin' F Now, how did we let this go? Post-Chorus Bb Gm We never had, ah Bb Gm We never wanted, ah Eb We never had, ah F Eb We never wanted F A normal kind of love verse 2 Bb We never had time for useless fights Gm 'Bout dirty laundry Bb We always had tender, long goodbyes Gm Packed bags in a hurry Eb Our last kiss at the bus stop F Had I known, would've jumped off Eb F And now from the pieces of my heart, I'm so sorry Bb 9th of October, I always remember Gm No bad things had happened then Bb Honestly, you never thought you'd fall for me Gm But somehow you got pulled in Eb Livin' so fast, makin' memories last F 'Til our hearts couldn't hold no more Eb Hear you explodin' while I am implodin' F Now, how did we let this go? Post-Chorus Bb Gm We never had, ah Bb Gm We never wanted, ah Eb We never had, ah F Eb We never wanted F A normal kind of love Refrain Bb Gm Waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart (We never wanted) Bb Gm Waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart Eb Still waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart F We never wanted a normal kind of love Bridge Bb Gm 9th of October, I always remember Bb 9th of October, I always remember Gm Those big words, I said them first Eb F 9th of October, I always remember Eb 9th of October, can't think of it sober F 'Cause all of it fuckin' hurts Refrain Bb Gm Waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart (We never wanted) Bb Gm Waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart Eb Still waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart F Eb F We never wanted a normal kind of love Bb Gm Oh, waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart (We never wanted) Bb Gm Waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart Eb Still waitin' for my heart, waitin' for my heart F Eb We never wanted a normal kind of love
