[Intro]
Cmaj7  Em7  Fmaj7
Cmaj7  Em7  Dm7
 
 
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7  Em7       Fmaj7
Lately I’ve been thinking,
 Cmaj7
About that night and,
Em7              Dm7
what happened to you,
      Cmaj7              Em7
I was older than you and I,
               Fmaj7
Should’a known better,
    Cmaj7
The full moon,
         Em7         Dm7
was like drunken-eye blinking.
 
 
[Interlude]
C  Em  Am
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Cmaj7  Em7         Fmaj7
The forest came out of nowhere,
       Cmaj7 Em7                Dm7
Like a fist  out from grandpa’s farmland,
Cmaj7               Em7       Fmaj7
We thought it would be pretty funny,
   Cmaj7           Em7        Dm7
To drive all night out to California.
 
 
[Chorus]
       Cmaj7/G       G        Am
But we never made it past the river,
    Cmaj7/G
And now you’re gonna be,
    G        F
Out there forever,
    Cmaj7/G
I’m looking at you,
G                    Am
looking at me in the mirror,
Cmaj7/G           G
I don’t think I’m ready,
            F
for your forgiveness.
 
 
[Interlude]
F  G C G  F
Ooh,
F  G C G  F  Em  Fmaj7
Ooh.
 
 
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7  Em                      F
I know you don’t want to talk about it,
           C                 Em7
You had to learn how to walk again,
      Dm7
And I bolted,
  Cmaj7                  Em7            Fmaj7
I wish I could drive you now on highway one along the sea,
Cmaj7                 Em7
Yeah, you should have been,
       Dm7
in California with me.
 
 
[Chorus]
       Cmaj7/G       G        Am
But we never made it past the river,
    Cmaj7/G
And now you’re gonna be,
    G        F
Out there forever,
    Cmaj7/G
I’m looking at you,
G                    Am
looking at me in the mirror,
Cmaj7/G           G
I don’t think I’m ready,
            F
for your forgiveness.
 
 
[Interlude]
F  G C G  F
Ooh,
F  G C G  F  Em  F
Ooh.

[Verse 4]
C        Em7         Fmaj7
You seem happy where you are,
C            G             Dm7
I’m not sure I can say the same,
C                 Em
I keep seeing the trees,
                   F
coming through the windshield,
C                    G
We were so young you said,
                  Dm7
there’s no one to blame.
 
 
[Chorus]
       C             G        Am
But we never made it past the river,
    C
And now you’re gonna be,
    G        F
Out there forever,
    Cmaj7/G
I’m looking at you,
G                    Am
looking at me in the mirror,
Cmaj7/G           G
I don’t think I’m ready,
            F
for your forgiveness.
