Capo 2nd fret Another song from Taylor Swift's Speak Now [album] D A Em I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us, How we met G And the sparks flew instantly D A Em G And people would say they're the lucky ones D A Em I used to know my place was the spot next to you, G Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat D A Em G Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on Em G Oh, a simple complication, D A Miscommunications lead to fallout, Em G So many things that I wish that you knew G A So many walls up I can't break through D A Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room Em G And we're not speaking D A And I'm dyin' to know Em Is it killing you G Like it's killing me? Yeah D A Em G I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down D A Em G And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now Next chapter D A Em G D A How'd we end up this way? Em G See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy D A Em G And you're doing your best to avoid me D A Em I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us G Of how I was losing my mind when I saw you here D A Em G But you held your pride like you should have held me, Em G D A Oh I'm scared to see the ending why are we pretending this is nothing Em G I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how G A I've never heard silence quite this loud. (Chorus) D A Em G D A This is looking like a contest Em G Of who can act like they care less D A Em G But I liked it better when you were on my side D A The battle's your hands now Em G But I would lay my armor down D A Em G If you said you'd rather love than fight Em G So many things that you wish I knew G A But the story of us might be ending soon Chorus D A Em G Now, Now, Now Chorus G D The End
