[Verse 1]

We took a taxi
Dm
Sat in the backseat
Am
Said you won't leave me
C
Called me your treasure
Dm
Keep me forever
Am
You know me better

[Pre-Chorus]
      C
Every step that you would take
        Dm
I would walk the other way
       Am
Sayin' it ain't about you, yea

G F

[Chorus]
                   Am
Thought that I was young
                  G
But I was only foolish
               Em
I made more mistakes
                 F
Than I could count
              Am
I needed time to
                  G
Learn how to love you
          Em
But now I do
                 F
'Cause I'm older now

Am G Em
F Am G Em

[Verse 2]
C           Dm
I come over

Lay on your sofa
  Am
Remind me to hold ya
    C
But I just inhale
       Dm
Put it out in the ashtray
    Am
And I'll be on my way

[Pre-Chorus]
      C
Every step that you would take
        Dm
I would walk the other way
       Am
Sayin' it ain't about you, yea

[Chorus]
                   Am
Thought that I was young
                  G
But I was only foolish
               Em
I made more mistakes
                 F
Than I could count
              Am
I needed time to
                  G
Learn how to love you
          Em
But now I do
                 F
'Cause I'm older now

[Bridge]
F
I was too close to you
Am
I couldn't see it
G
Always on my mind
Em
You're always on my mind, no
F
I was too close to you
Am
I couldn't see it
G
Always on my mind, yea
Em
You're always on my mind

F Am G Em (2x)

                 F
'Cause I'm older now

[Chorus]
                   Am
Thought that I was young
                  G
But I was only foolish
               Em
I made more mistakes
                 F
Than I could count
              Am
I needed time to
                  G
Learn how to love you
          Em
But now I do
                 C
'Cause I'm older now
