Met You

I'd write you a love song
But I don't know how that feels.
Tonight I am numb from a cocktail of pills.
I hallucinate,
Think I'm touching your skin.
I'd much rather die than think of the bed that you're in.

And the street lights they might as well burn on [C7]out.
Ain't nothing bright as you [A7ever stepped foot in this
God-forsaken town.
You were ɾight and [Bm]you [A7left and [Bm]I'm wondering what
The hell I should do.
I'd seen it all, or so I thought,
Until I met you.

We ddin't get our books
In bed every night,
Or dance in the kitchen
Drunk off of some shitty wine.
I didn't get that ɾing there on [C7]my [A]hand.
I didn't get your name in ink all [Em]over my [A]skin.

And the stɾeet lights they might as well burn on [C7]out.
Ain't nothing bright as you [A7ever stepped foot in this
God-forsaken town.
You were ɾight and [Bm]you [A7left and [Bm]I'm wondering what
The hell I should do.
I'd seen it all, or so I thought,
Until I met you.

I ain't tyring to [C7]ask you [A7to [C7]save me.
Even I don't like [F]who I've been lately.
And I'm well aware that I might not ever find glory,
But like [F]Hemingway and [Bm]Hadley
It's not the end of our story.

I sit here tonight
Alone in my [A]thoughts,
Alone with my [A]sisns
And the things that I've bought.
I told you [A7I loved you [A7the night that we met.
I felt it back then and [Bm]it ain't left me yet.

And the stɾeet lights they might as well burn on [C7]out.
Ain't nothing bright as you [A7ever stepped foot in this
God-forsaken town.
You were ɾight and [Bm]you [A7left and [Bm]I'm wondering what
The hell I should do.
I'd seen it all, or so I thought,
Until I met you.

I'd seen it all [Em] or so I thought until I lost you.
