C
She didn't mean to
F          G
deceive you believe me
C
But sometimes the
       F       G
hardest part is conceiving

Am
The good intentions
          F
that you had
Now only came to
Am
this And although
she saw the mark
Dm  F
The arrow missed

C
It isn't exciting
F       G
reciting the stories
C
Of kind words turned hurting
F           G
when routine gets boring

Chorus:
Am
Both getting tired
               F
of punk rock clubs
And both playing
             Am
in punk rock bands
The start was
something good
Dm   F
But some good
things must end

            C
And she said "It
                F
could never survive
With such differing
G
lives One home one
F             C
out on tour again
We may never come
F
back The strike of
   G
a match The candle's
 F
buring at both ends"

And now she knows too much, and I'm too fucked up
It's awkward trying to make my move
I'll pretend that I'm fine, show up right on time
But I know I'll never be that cool

Chorus:
I never wanted to hold you back,
I just wanted to hold on
But my chance is gone
I know just where I stand
A boy trapped in the body of a man and

I'll take what you're willing to give,
and I'll teach myself to live
With a walk-on part of a background shot,
from a movie I'm not in

She's so important, and I'm so retarded

Chorus:
And now I realize,
I should have kissed you in L.A
But I drove home all alone, as if
I had a choice, anyway
Where are you coming from?
What are you running from?
Is it so hard to see?

And if you're feeling scared,
remember the time we shared
You know it meant everything (everything)
You know that it meant everything to me
You know that it meant everything to me
