D                   A                          G
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
                                        D
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
             A                           G        
People would say, "They're the lucky ones"
D                 A                        G
I used to know my place was a spot next to you
                                            D
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
                           A                       G
'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on


A                  Bm
Oh, a simple complication
          D               Asus4
Miscommunications lead to fall out
G
So many things that I wish you knew
A
So many walls that I can't break through


D                Asus4              G
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
                      D
And we're not speaking
                 Asus4             G                               
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)                 
Like it's killing me?
Bm                   A                    D                  
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
                  G                                       
When it all broke down
        Bm                  A                  G

D                    A                       
How'd we end up this way?
                 G              
See me nervously pulling at my clothes
                       D
And trying to look busy
                      A               G
And you're doing your best to avoid me

D                         A                          G
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
                                            D
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
                  A                               G
But you held your pride like you should have held me


A                           Bm
Oh, we're scared to see the ending
           D                  Asus4
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
G
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
A                     -stop
I've never heard silence quite this loud


D                Asus4              G

    This is looking like a contest

Of who can act like they care less
D                          A              G
But I liked it better when you were on my side
D                             G
The battle's in your hands now
(G)
But I would lay my armor down

If you'd say you'd rather love than fight

So many things that you wish I knew

Capo 2nd fret
Another song from Taylor Swift's Speak Now [album]

D                 A                              Em
  I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us,
How we met
G
And the sparks flew instantly
D                A                     Em     G               
And people would say they're the lucky ones
D                 A                          Em
I used to know my place was the spot next to you,
                  G
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
D                         A                     Em   G
Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on
Em           G
Oh, a simple complication,
             D         A
Miscommunications lead to fallout,
Em                    G
So many things that I wish that you knew
G                A
So many walls up I can't break through


D                      A
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
  Em              G
And we're not speaking
D                A
And I'm dyin' to know
                Em
Is it killing you
                  G
Like it's killing me?
Yeah
D                    A                    Em                      G
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
D                A                    Em           G
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Next chapter
D           A            Em          G

D                    A
How'd we end up this way?
                 Em                        G
See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
D                A                 Em   G
And you're doing your best to avoid me
D                     A                              Em
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
                       G
Of how I was losing my mind when I saw you here
D                 A                          Em   G
But you held your pride like you should have held me,
Em                       G                    D               A
Oh I'm scared to see the ending why are we pretending this is nothing
Em                          G
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
G                        A
I've never heard silence quite this loud.

(Chorus)
D         A          Em         G

D               A
This is looking like a contest
   Em               G
Of who can act like they care less
D                A                     Em         G
But I liked it better when you were on my side
D                  A
The battle's your hands now
      Em             G
But I would lay my armor down
D        A          Em             G
If you said you'd rather love than fight


Em                      G
So many things that you wish I knew
G                   A
But the story of us might be ending soon


Chorus 
D   A    Em   G
Now, Now, Now

Chorus
G           D
The End
