[Verse 1]
C F C F
Skater shoes and faded Levis
C F C F
A mixtape of your favorite b-sides
C F
That polaroid of us still lives beside my bed
C F C
I know I can't avoid it but I try my best (Mhm)
F C F
I wanted to be you back in '05
C F
But it gets hard when you're so little and you're lost
C F
And you're left picking up the pieces of a world that kind of stopped
[Chorus]
C F
So why the hell did you leave so fast?
C F
'Cause shooting stars are never meant to crash
C C
Were you in pain and I just couldn't see
C F
Thought it'd all make sense when I was 23
C F
That you'd be thеre when I need you most
C F
Despitе a million miles, would we still be close?
C
Would you fall in love?
F
Make her your wife?
C
Would you have a kid?
F
Would they have your eyes?
F C F
I guess we'll never know
C F
I guess we'll never know
[Verse 2]
C F C F
The time it passed and I fucking let it
C F C
'Cause it still hurts when I don't forget it
F C
The numbers on my chest, I put my blood in ink
F C F C
When I talk about the best I wish it didn't sting (Mhm)
F C
The hardest part is just accepting
F
That this shits hard
C F
'Cause I'm good and then I'm not
C F C
Looking for reasons in the pieces of the you that I've still got
[Chorus]
F C
So why the hell did you leave so fast?
