[G] [D]
[G] [D] [G]
Ooh, by the time [D] you hear this I'll be in the [G] rearview mirror
I'll even wear [D] that green dress you like so when I [G] disappear
You could turn around, one last look at the girl you lost
In the time you took to [D] make up your mind
Between [G] two roads, go and [D] take some more time
But me and mine [G] must go
I tried to wait it out, no more
I can't find [D] the man I was waiting [G] for
I wanted to be a girl [D] in a white t-shirt over [G] coffee

While you read [G] me poetry
[D] by [Bm] [G] Deadman
By the [D] time you hear this, who knows where I [G] might be
Singing [D] about another near miss, love that ended [G] in comfy
I was ready [A] but you weren't [G] so jump with your net [D] from this bridge you [G] burned
I wanted to tell you [D] things, all the secrets I've been keeping
[G] I saw it in front of [Bm] [F#m] me, [G] but then you just kept [D] [G] disappearing
Good [D] dream, [Bm] almost
Now I [C#] tell [G] your ghost I wanted to be your girl
[D] In a white t-shirt over [G] coffee
Stirring in the cinnamon
