New versions

Tone: [G]
Capo: none
Fingerpicking/Strumming pattern:
[C]When the morning came we [G]were cleaning incense off your [Em]vinyl shelf
'Cause we lost [D]track of time again
[C]Laughing with my feet [G]in your lap
Like [Em]you were my [D]closest friend
[C]"How'd we end up on the [G]floor anyway?" You say
[Em]"Your roommate's cheap-ass screw-top [D]rosé, that's how"
[C]I see you [G]every day now[Em] [D]
And I[C] chose you[G]
The one[Em] I was [D]dancin' with
In New York[C], no shoes[G]
Looked up[Em] at the [D]sky and it was
The [C]burgundy on my T-shirt when you [G]splashed your wine into me
And how the [Em]blood rushed into my cheeks, so [D]scarlet, it was
The [C]mark you saw on my collarbone, the [G]rust that grew between telephones
The [Em]lips I used to call home, so [D]scarlet, it was maroon
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
[C]When the silence came, we [G]were shaking blind and hazy
[Em]How the hell did we [D]lose sight of us again?
[C]Sobbin' with your head [G]in your hands
Ain't [Em]that the way shit [D]always ends?
[C]You were standin' hollow[G]-eyed in the hallway
[Em]Carnations you had thought were [D]roses, that's us
[C]I feel you [G]no matter what
[Em]The [D]rubies that I gave up
When I[C] lost you[G]
The one[Em] I was [D]dancin' with
In New York[C], no shoes[G]
Looked up[Em] at the [D]sky and it was
The [C]burgundy on my T-shirt when you [G]splashed your wine into me
And how the [Em]blood rushed into my cheeks, so [D]scarlet, it was
The [C]mark you saw on my collarbone, the [G]rust that grew between telephones
The [Em]lips I used to call home, so [D]scarlet, it was maroon
And I [C]wake with your memory[G] over me
That's a [Em]real fucking legacy, [D]legacy (it was maroon)
And I [C]wake with your memory[G] over me
That's a [Em]real fucking legacy[D] to leave
The [C]burgundy on my T-shirt when you [G]splashed your wine into me
And how the [Em]blood rushed into my cheeks, so [D]scarlet, it was
The [C]mark they saw on my collarbone, the [G]rust that grew between telephones
The [Em]lips I used to call home, so [D]scarlet, it was maroon
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
It was maroon
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
It was maroon [G]
