Capo: 3rd fret

[Intro]
G  Em  G  Em
 
 
[Verse]
G                          Em
 Love you in the worst way
    G                                Em
You knock me down like a heavyweight
   G
We fell in love got a k o, oh no
Em
Too damn young so we broke up no go
G                           Em
 So much for a wedding date
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
  Am                            D
I know nobody gets out of love alive
                             G                               Em
We either breakup when we’re young or we say goodbye when we die
      Am                              D
For a moment at least I know you were mine and it was beautiful
    G                            Em
But winter comes and roses don’t survive
            Am                 D
Its getting late, and I should go
 
 
[Chorus]
            G
But I wanna hold you
          Em
Like it’s june in the west end
          Am
Back when you were my best friend
       D
Before love came to kill us
            G
We’re not supposed to
      Em
But I can’t learn my lesson
            Am
I miss when you were my best friend
       D
Before love came to kill us
             G           B7  B7/D#
So under the mask of the moon
         C            Cm
Could we dance in the past
       C    Bm  Am  G/B D
Before lo___o___o___o___ve
                    G       Em G Em
Before love came to kill us
 
 
[Verse]
G                                 Em
 Life’s good and I’m getting paid
     G                         Em
But I think about you everyday (still)
G                           Em
 When I miss you I medicate (pour up drink, drink)
G                              Em
Tears come out like a renegade
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
      C                        D
Cause nobody gets out of love alive
                             G                               Em
We either breakup when we’re young or we say goodbye when we die
      C                               D
For a moment at least I know you were mine and it was beautiful
    G                            Em
But winter comes and roses don’t survive
            Am                 D
Its getting late, and I should go
 
 
[Chorus]
            G
But I wanna hold you
          Em
Like it’s june in the west end
          Am
Back when you were my best friend
       D
Before love came to kill us
            G
We’re not supposed to
      Em
But I can’t learn my lesson
            Am
I miss when you were my best friend
       D
Before love came to kill us
             G           B7  B7/D#
So under the mask of the moon
         C            Cm
Could we dance in the past
       C    Bm  Am  G/B D
Before lo___o___o___o___ve, before love
 
 
[Outro]
          G           B7/D#
Under the mask of the moon
         C            Cm
Could we dance in the past
       C    Bm  Am  G/B D
Before lo___o___o___o___ve
       C    Bm  Am  G/B D
Before lo___o___o___o___ve
                          G       D6/F# E7sus4/F E7
Before love came to kill us
