[Primeira Parte]
Am
I was floating across the dance floor
C
I was trying to think of something to say
F/C
When I went up to your girlfriends
C C/B
And I pulled you away
Am
You were so perfectly pretty
C
I could love every mistake
F/C
At the end of the night, yeah
C C/B
I asked you your name
[Pré-Refrão]
F/C
And you said, "Laura"
G
I couldn't ignore it
Am
The name of my old love
Dm
It keeps fucking me up
[Refrão]
F/C Am G
But on paper, I could write it out for you
F/C Am G
On paper, I could draw you a picture
F/C Am G
On paper, I could finish any story
Dm F/C
With any ending you please
[Segunda Parte]
Am
And I saw you in a dream in the morning
C
It's the only time I can remember
F/C
You were sitting at my kitchen table
C C/B
With no makeup on
Am
And a thought flew in through the front door
C
You were so happy to see it
F/C
You were telling me about everything
C C/B
You saw on tour
[Pré-Refrão]
F/C
And I said, "Know this
G
I listen to your records
Am
I keep you in my head", yeah
Dm
You probably got a boyfriend
[Refrão]
F/C Am G
But on paper, I could write it out for you
F/C Am G
On paper, I could draw you a picture
F/C Am G
On paper, I could finish any story
Dm F/C
With any ending you please

[Ponte]
F/C
I can't keep up, always playing catch up
Am
Talking to you right now would be too much
G
Your ma told me I got a letter
Dm
Written from you, (it's) sitting on the dresser
F/C
I can't keep up, always playing catch up
Am
Talking to you right now would be too much
G
May 14th, I got a letter
Dm
Written from you, (it's) sitting on the dresser
( F/C Am G )
