Teenage Talk

A

A
Katie kept the list of times
Now that she had really done it, done it
G
So we swarmed like flies
Pretending that we weren't terrified to

A
We snuck out that night
Rolled the Chrysler down the driveway
    G
But once we were inside
Couldn't figure out where we were off to

           E            D         E        D           A
That was before we had made any terrible mistakes


       A
Well that's just teenage talk
Pinky swear that you won't go changing
G
Drank so much that night
Carved the state of Texas in our forearms

      A
You know I never loved you more
Than when we were hiding from those sirens, sirens
G
Oh, we laughed so hard
Threw up in your mother's azaleas

             E         D         E         D
That was before we had made any terrible mistakes
             E         D         E         D
That was before we had made any terrible mistakes

E  D     E  D     E  D     E  D

       E
Well that's just teenage talk
D
I don't think the past is better, better
E
Just 'cause it's cased in glass
   D
Protecting us from our now and later

      E
You know I never loved you more
          D
Than when we were running from those sirens, sirens
E
Drank so much that night
D
Carved the state of Texas in our forearms

A       G

A
How do you see me now?
Now that I'm a little bit older, older
G
Never mind the albatross
                                       A
Smoldering on my shoulder, shoulder, shoulder, shoulder
