G Who decided when the words came out? You said I couldn't have these selfish doubts, C I know G But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can G You're self-destructing from the inside out C And never find a way to talk it out, I know G But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can D C G But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had D C And you wouldn't waste away Chorus: G D Because it's honesty and things you promise me Em C Always on a list and growing constantly You know you're beautiful without that dress If time is fleeting let's embrace this mess, I know And if that's a fact you won't need it at all But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had And you wouldn't waste away Chorus: G D Because it's honesty and things you promise me Em C Always on a list and growing constantly Then I said G D "I thought our love was just a recipe Em7 C Who would've thought that it'd mean everything?" G D And in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right Em C Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight, oh G D I thought our love was just a recipe Em7 C Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me? Em I wanna know what it's like D C To barely sleep through the night G And not have a care at all Em And though I know it's been said D C I've had these doubts in my head G But none that I can recall Em I wanna know what it's like D C To barely sleep through the night And not have a care at all Em And though I know it's been said D C I've had these doubts in my head G D But none that I can recall Chorus: Because it's honesty and things you promise me Always on a list and growing constantly Then I said "I thought our love was just a recipe Who would've thought that it'd mean everything?" And in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight, oh I thought our love was just a recipe Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me? | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC  D  Em  Em7  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
