VERSE:
           D      A             Bm
Well that potted plant in your bedroom
 Bm            G             D
Isn't getting nearly enough sunlight
 F#m         A
Neither are you
 
           D       A             D
It's been sitting there at your bedside
 D                G           D
Hoping you might notice it's wilting
     A              A
And think that it's time
 
         D       A          Bm
For you both to sit on the front lawn
     Bm          G        F#m          A              A
And listen to a podcast about all the crime that went on
 
     D       A        Bm     Bm
Back in the eighteen hundreds
          G           F#m
And both you and the plant
    F#m         F#m
Are glad to be sunny
 
 
CHORUS:
        D         A           Bm             A
And it all sorta felt like a song that you heard
   G         D     A  A
A real long time ago
 
         G             D          Bm
And you can't quite remember the lyrics
A        G            G      A
But you know how the melody goes
 
 A          D      A      Bm
And you've got no way to find it
 A          G          D       A
'Cause you don't know who it's by
 
 A       G       D        Bm
And you want so badly to hear it
 A      F#m      G        A
Just to hear it one more time
 
 
VERSE:
      D         A         Bm
That movie you wanted to watch
     D            G         G
But never really got around to it
    F#m    A
Is finally on
 
        D        A         Bm  Bm
It's about some guy and a girl
         G         D           A          A
And you watch it alone and pretend to be her and
 
 D         A      Bm  Bm
When it's finally over
          G          D             A               A
You pass out on the couch and you sleep your self sober
 
               D      D      Bm  Bm
'Cause you're working 7 hours
 
         G             D          A              A
And the plant in your bedroom it starts to grow flowers
 
 
CHORUS:
        D         A           Bm             A
And it all sorta felt like a song that you heard
   G         D     A  A
A real long time ago
 
         G             D          Bm
And you can't quite remember the lyrics
A        G            G      A
But you know how the melody goes
 
 A          D      A      Bm
And you've got no way to find it
 A          G          D       A
'Cause you don't know who it's by
 
 A       G       D        Bm
And you want so badly to hear it
 A       D       G       A   A  A
Just to hear it one more ti-ime
