Capo: 4th fret
[Intro]
Am Am Em D
[Verse 1]
G G G G
I do what you tell me like it's my idea
C C C C
I came down to find you, pretend that you're here
G G G G
And I never could replace you, it's too dark to try
D/F# D/F# Em Em
But I look for our memories, and their clothing and their eyes
[Chorus]
Am Am
You didn't know
Em D
You didn't know
[Verse 2]
G G G G
You're there when I need you, we talk on the phone
C C C C
I know that you've been trying to build us a home
G G G G
Yet I scramble to find one with couches and boys
D/F# D/F# Em Em
But all I hear's an echo, the sound of your voice
[Chorus]
Am Am
You didn't know
Em D
You didn't know
[Verse 3]
G G G G
You may have more to teach me, but what haven't I heard?
C C C C
Listening is easy, but learning is earned
G G G G
I forgive you and I thank you, you know all the reasons why
D/F# D/F# Em Em
I'm sorry and I love you, all we can do is try
[Chorus]
Am Am
You didn't know
Em D
How to raise me
G D/F# Em D A7 C
Any more than I knew how to grow up
Am Am D D
Childhood is over, and it wasn't enough
[Verse 4]
G G G G
But Nina's in the garden and Rascal's on the roof
C C C C
The charges against you, I know I have no proof
G G G G
So goodbye to the Chelsea, goodbye to the rocket ship
D/F# D/F# Em Em
There's only room for you and me there and there's so much more to fit
[Chorus]
Am Am
You didn't know
Em Em
You didn't know
Am Am
You didn't know
Em Em
You didn't know
Am Am
You didn't know
Em D
You didn't know

i do what you tell me like it’s my idea
i came down to find you, pretend that you’re here
and i never could replace you, it’s too dark to try
but i look for our memories, and their clothing, and their eyes
[chorus]
you didn’t know, you didn’t know

you’re there when i need you, we talk on the phone
i know that you’ve been trying to build us a home
yet i scramble to find one with couches and boys

you didn’t know how to raise me
any more than i knew how to grow up
childhood is over, and it wasn’t enough

you didn’t know, you didn’t know
you didn’t know, you didn’t know
you didn’t know, you didn’t know
