Tom: Ab

Ab Dbmaj7


[Verse 1]
Ab
You laugh beside me
     Ab
You needed this coffee
     Dbmaj7
Your legs are too long
      Dbmaj7
For my passenger seat
          Ab
And your brother's a dropout
Ab
You've thought about
       Dbmaj7
Giving up on science
   Dbmaj7
In pursuit of higher thinking


[Pre-Chorus]
Ab


[Chorus]
      Dbmaj7                  Ab
And my heart gets ahead of me always, always
      Dbmaj7                  Ab
You're talking in verses to me always, always
Bbm7                    Db            Dbmaj7
You'll never live up to myths that I made of you


[Instrumental]
Ab


[Verse 2]
Ab
My bones and veins
     Ab
Had to learn to be brave
          Dbmaj7
You would lie with Goliath
   Dbmaj7
To have it both ways
    Ab
And all of my friends thought
    Ab           Dmaj7*
That you'd stick around
N.C.
You sounded so great


[Chorus]
    Abmaj7        Dmaj7       Ab
But you're just a boy with a biblical name
      Dbmaj7                  Ab
And my heart gets ahead of me always, always
      Dbmaj7                  Ab
I'd givе you the benefit always, always
Bbm7                    Db
You'll nеver live up to myths that I made of you


[Instrumental]
Ab


[Outro]
Bbm7
Nothing's forever
Dmaj7                     Ab
I've got to live with that too

Ab    Dmaj7
Hmm, hmm
Ab    Dmaj7
Hmm, hmm

Ab     Db
Hmm, hmm
