[Verse 1]
C#m E  B
When you were a little girl
A      B       E
And you were an ocean away from me
C#m E  B
Didn't know what I wanted yet
A                 B         E
But you were already listening to The Pixies

[Instrumental]
C#m B E

[Verse 2]
C#m E  B
We were a little shy
A               B       E
When you were still an arm's length away from me
C#m E  B
Didn't know what I wanted yet
A               B         E
But you were already reading beat poetry

[Instrumental]
C#m B E

[Verse 3]
C#m E  B
We were a little free
A      B            E
When we were seven seas away from anything
C#m E     B
Finally knew what I wanted then
A    B        E
But you were already my best friend
C#m         B        E
You had already become my best friend

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
C#m E      B
When you were teaching geometry
A            B          E
We were both living off of your salary
C#m         E          B
I want to thank you for not kicking me out
A                  B           E
I wanna thank you for letting me live in our house
C#m                B           E
I wanna thank you for letting me live in our house

[Instrumental]
C#m B E

[Bridge]
F#m      B                E
Finally we made a family
F#m               B
Make a little home then
G#m                 C#m B
fill it up with children
F#m                B
Never mind the rest it's all just
G#m                 C#m        B
Irrelevant if we're just stardust
F#m                 B
This dusty old world won't rest and
G#m                        C#m        B         F#m
These dusty little kids keep stretching high
B
Just like the tide

[Verse 5]
C#m          E          B
When you were a little middle-aged like me
A          B          E
And we were already 15 love songs deep
C#m      E       B
You give me too much love, so I blame you
A        B    E
Well, here's another love song for you
C#m   E          B
You give me too much love, what can I do?
A        B    E
Well, here's another love song for you
C#m B    E
Just another love song for you
