Verse 1
Please take me by the hand, it`s so cold out tonight
I`ll put blankets on the bed I won`t turn out the light
(C5) (E5)
B5 E5 F5 B5
just don`t forget to think about me and I won`t
(C5) (E5)
E5 F5
forget you. I`ll write you once a week she said.

Verse 2
Why does it feel the same to fall in love or break it up
And if young love is just a game then, I must have missed
the kick off.
(C5) (E5)
B5 E5 F5 B5
Don`t depend on if she ever followed you or anything,
(C5) (E5)
E5 F5
but I`d go through hell for you.

And I haven`t been this scared, in a long time
And I`m so unprepared, so here`s your valentine
A bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody. This
world`s an ugly place, but you`re so beautiful to me
intro 2 (2X)
Verse 3, palm mute intro
I think about the times, she kissed me after class.
And she put up with my friends. I acted like an ass.
(C5) (E5)
B5 E5 F5
I ditched my lecture, to watch the girls play soccer.
(C5) (E5)
B5 E5 F5
Is my picture still hanging in her locker?
