I was floating across the dance floor,
C
I was trying to think of something to say,
Fmaj9 C Cmaj9
When i went up to your girlfriends and pulled you away.
Am
You were so perfectly pretty,
C
I could love every mistake.
Fmaj9 C Cmaj9
At the end of the night, i asked you your name.
F Am
You said "Laura" - i couldn't ignore it.
G Dm
The name of my old love keeps fucking me up
C Am G
But on paper, i could write it out for you.
C Am G
On paper, i could draw you a picture.
C Am G Dm C
On paper, i could finish any story with any ending you please.
Am
I saw you in a dream in the morning,
C
It's the only time i can remember.
Fmaj9 C Cmaj9
You were sitting at my kitchen table with no makeup on.
Am
If i flew in through the front door,
C
You were so happy to see it,
Fmaj9 C Cmaj9
And you were telling me about everything you saw on tour.
F Am
And i said "know this - i'll listen to your records,
G
i'll keep you in my head."
Dm
Shit you've probably got a boyfriend
