C     G              C
I sat next to you at lunch
             F
You had your back turned
            G
Reading your magazine
C        G            C
I didn't want to interrupt
              F
You looked so peaceful
           G
In your own company

[Pre-Chorus]

F
Funny how we remember things
       G
How we hold on to the good
                  Am
But throw out the bad stuff
What happened to us?

[Chorus]

F                          G
I was never ready for your love
    Em     F                 Am         G
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
F                         G
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
   Em          F                 Am        G
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up

[Verse 2]

C            G          C
You were somebody to me once
                 F
But now you're a fiction
             G
Someone that I made up
C            G                C
Turns out it was too much for us
                 F
And if we met in five years
         G
Would we notice?

[Pre-Chorus]

F
Funny how we remember things
       G
How we hold on to the good
                  Am
But throw out the bad stuff
What happened to us?

[Chorus]

F                          G
I was never ready for your love
    Em     F                 Am         G
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
F                         G
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
   Em          F                 Am        G
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
F                          G
I was never ready for your love
    Em     F                 Am         G
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
F                         G
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
   Em          F                 Am        G
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
F                          G
I was never ready for your love
    Em     F                 Am         G
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
F                         G
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
   Em          F                 Am        G
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up

[Outro]

F                 G
I was never ready
Em          F
I was never ready
Am             G
Never meant to be
F                 G
I was never ready
Em          F
I was never ready
Am             G
Never meant to be
