I Should've Guessed

[Verse 1]
E            Em7          A
When I was a kid I played pretend so often
E           Em7          A
I started believing my own games
E            Em7           A
When I was a kid I read so many works of fiction
E           Em7               A
I started believing what they’d say
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           C#m                A
And then I met you with those eyes
         C#m           A
Spinning treetops in July
      C#m               A
And I swore that I recognized you
            C#m
From a past life
                      A
Where we never got it right
 
[Chorus]
E           Em7                          A
I should’ve guessed it would happen like this
Anyone with common sense could see it
E           Em7                         A
I should’ve guessed I’d be crying in my kitchen
                                   C#m
While you’re busy kissing somebody I can’t compete with
                   A
And we both know I can’t make it even
           D
I probably needed a reality check
             A                             E
And now I’ve got one so I really should’ve guessed

[Verse 2]
E             Em7          A
 And I know I tend to over romanticize moments
E            Em7               A
 Bottle them up and hide them away
E              Em7             A
 Yeah I know I tend to try and stay in that slow motion
E            Em7             A
 But nothing holds you these days
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
               C#m           A
‘Cause she’s a golden summer sky
           C#m                          A
And I’m an ocean that’s far to deep for you to dive
 
[Chorus]
E           Em7                          A
I should’ve guessed it would happen like this
Anyone with common sense could see it
E           Em7                         A
I should’ve guessed I’d be crying in my kitchen
                                   C#m
While you’re busy kissing somebody I can’t compete with
                   A
And we both know I can’t make it even
           D
I probably needed a reality check
             A                             B
And now I’ve got one so I really should’ve guessed
 
[Bridge]
A      B  A
This obsession
         B       A
Was only messing with my head
 
[Chorus]
E           Em7                          A
I should’ve guessed it would happen like this
Anyone with common sense could see it
E           Em7                         A
I should’ve guessed I’d be crying in my kitchen
                                   C#m
While you’re busy kissing somebody I can’t compete with
                   A
And we both know I can’t make it even
           D
I probably needed a reality check
             A                             E
And now I’ve got one so I really should’ve guessed
