Perfect Day (A True Story)

Gabbie Hanna


Tom: C

       C*      Dm*           F*
Such a perfect day, just two misfits sharing kisses


[Chorus]
           C                        Dm
And after all this time you give me butterflies, butterflies
F
Months go by, I still get butterflies, butterflies
C          Dm         F
Perfect day, what did I do to deserve this?


[Verse 1]
C*           Dm*
Went back to your house
       F*
And we couldn't help but hold each other
C*         Dm*
Tangled at the mouth
       F*
Took a break so I could take a shower
C*                         Dm*
Washed the sand out of my hair
         F*
From our perfect day spent at the beach
C*                     Dm*
Looked into the foggy mirror
      F*
Saw a message staring back at me


[Chorus]
          C                         Dm
And after all this time you give me butterflies, butterflies
F
Months go by, I still get butterflies, butterflies
C        Dm           F
Perfect day, what did I do to deserve this?


[Verse 2]
         C*                       Dm*
I saw "I love you" written in the steam
      F*
And I couldn't help but smile at the sweet message you left me
       C*                 Dm*
But it wasn't in your handwriting
           F*
Then those happy little letters

Were the saddest thing I'd ever seen


[Bridge]
Am
You need to get your conscience clean
Am
But just spare me the details, please
F                             C        Dm
I wanna keep remembering this perfect day
            Am
I'm not the type to be left speechless
Am
But I don't think I can deal with this
F
That's all the closure that you'll give
     C       Dm
This perfect day
     Am
Justifications failed as apologies
Am
I don't wanna cause a scene
F
Please let me go, I just wanna leave
     C       Dm
This perfect day

Oh, how could you miss this?
                    C         Dm
Wish you would have wiped it away
       F
Let me live in blissful ignorance
                     C       Dm
And let me have this perfect day
        F
But you left it all in ruins
              C       Dm
We ended on a perfect day
       F
Really wish I could forget this


[Chorus]
             C                         Dm
'Cause after all this time you give me butterflies, butterflies
F
Why'd you lie? Don't hurt my butterflies, butterflies
C                             Dm
Watch them die, you killed my butterflies, butterflies
F                              N.C.
Butterflies ruined my perfect day


[Outro]
N.C.
What did I do to deserve this?
