[C]Once upon a time,
I [G]believe it was a [D]Tuesday
when I [C]caught your eye
And we caught [G]onto something[D]
I hold onto[C] the night, you [G]looked
me in the [D]eye and told me [C]you loved [D]me
Were you just kidding?
'Cause it [C]seems to me, this [G]thing is breaking [D]down
We almost [C]never speak
I don't feel [G]welcome [D]anymore
Baby what [C]happened? Please tell me
'Cause one [G]second it was perfect, now [D]you're halfway out the door
And I stare [C]at the phone, he still [G]hasn't [D]called
And then you [C]feel so low you cant [G]feel nothing at [D]all
And you [C]flashback to when [G]he said, "Forever and [D]always"
Oh, and it [C]rains in your bedroom
[G]Everything is [D]wrong
[C]It rains when you're here and it [G]rains when you're [D]gone
'Cause [C]I was there when [G]you said, "Forever and [D]always"
(Instrumental)
[D]
[C]When the silence came, [G]we were shaking blind and [Em]hazy
How the hell did we [D]lose sight of us again?
[C]Sobbin' with your head in your [G]hands
Ain't [Em]that the way [D]shit always ends?
[C]You were standin' [G]hollow-eyed in the hallway
[Em]Carnations you had thought were [D]roses, that's us
[C]I feel you no [G]matter what
[Em]The rubies that [D]I gave up
[C]And I lost [G]you
The [Em]one I was [D]dancin' with
[C]In New York, no [G]shoes
[Em]Looked up at the [D]sky and it was maroon
[C]The burgundy on my T-shirt when you [G]splashed your wine into me
And how [Em]the blood rushed into my
cheeks, [D]so scarlet, it was (maroon)
[C]The 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)
(Instrumental)
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
[C]And I wake with your memory [G]over [D]me
[C]That's a real fucking legacy, [G]legacy[D] (it was maroon)
[C]And I wake with your memory [G]over [D]me
[C]That's a real fucking legacy [G]to [D]leave
Oh [C]back up, baby, [G]back up[D]
[C]Did you forget [G]everything?[D]
[C]Back up, baby,[G] back up[D]
[C]Did you forget [G]everything?[D]
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 maroon)
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]It was maroon
[C] [G] [Em]
[D]It was maroon
