Riff 1 (Strumming Pattern Throughout Verses: 1+2+3+1+2+1+2+3+1+2) D, A, Em, G
It's unclear now, what we intend
We're alone in our own world
You don't wanna be my boyfriend
And I don't wanna be your girl
D A
And that, that's a relief
Em
We'll drink up our grief
G
And pine for summer
D A
And we'll buy beer to shotgun
Em
And we'll lay in the lawn
G
And we'll be good
Riff 1 (Strumming Pattern Throughout Verses: 1+2+3+1+2+1+2+3+1+2) D, A, Em, G
(continue strumming pattern)
Now I'm laughing at my boredom
At my string of failed attempts
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/waxahatchee/be_good_crd_ver_2.html ]
Because you think that it's important
And I welcome the sentiment
D A
And we talk on the phone at night
Em
Until it's daylight
G
And I feel clever
D A
And I hear the slow in your speech
Em
Yeah you're half asleep
G
Say goodnight
Riff 1* (Continue strumming pattern)
Now I've got friendships to mend
I'm selfishly dispossessed
You don't wanna be my boyfriend
And that's probably for the best
D A
Because that, that gets messy
Em
And you will hurt me
G
Or I'll disappear
D A
So we will drink beer all day
Em
And our guards will give way
G
And we'll be good
Riff 1*
