Cadd9 G Em7 D


[Verse]
Cadd9       G               Em7       D               Cadd9
You were in college working part time waiting tables
        G          Em7          D
Left a small town, never looked back
Cadd9   G           Em7       D
I was a flight risk with the fear of fallin'
Cadd9             G           Em7
Wonderin' why we bother with love if it never lasts


[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Em7        D                Cadd9 G
I say can you believe it?
Em7     D                    Cadd9 G
As we're lying on a couch
  Em7            D
The moment I can see it
Cadd9  G Em7
Yes, yes I can see it now


[Chorus]
Cadd9  G                Em7           D
Do you remember we were sitting there by the water
Cadd9        G          Em7        D
You put your arm around me for the first time
Cadd9      G           Em7            D
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
Cadd9       G          Em7          D
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Cadd9 G Em7 D


[Verse]
Cadd9 G                  Em7           D
Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
Cadd9          G          Em7          D
And there is a drawer of my things and your place
Cadd9          G               Em7         D
You learned my secrets and you figured out why I'm guarded
Cadd9           G             Em7           D
You said we'll never make my parents' mistakes


[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Em7            D              Cadd9 G
But we've got bills to pay
Em7        D                 Cadd9 G
We've got nothing figured out
Em7         D           Cadd9  G
When it was hard to take yes, yes
Em7            D
This is what I thought about


[Chorus]
Cadd9  G                Em7           D
Do you remember we were sitting there by the water
Cadd9        G          Em7        D
You put your arm around me for the first time
Cadd9      G           Em7            D
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
Cadd9       G          Em7          D
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Cadd9  G                Em7         D
Do you remember all the city lights on the water
Cadd9      G            Em7         D
You saw me start to believe for the first time
Cadd9      G           Em7            D
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
Cadd9       G          Em7          D
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

[Bridge]
Em7                       Cadd9
And I remember that fight 2:30am
      G                             D
Cause everything was slipping right out of our hands
Em7                      Cadd9                        G      D
And I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Em7
Cadd9  G              D        Em7
Braced myself for the goodbye
Cadd9         G              D     Em7  Cadd9
Cause that's all I've ever known
G               D             Em7
And you took me by surprise
Cadd9    G          D           Cadd9
You said I'll never leave you alone


[Chorus]
       Cadd9 G              Em7          D
You said I remember how it felt sitting by the water
Cadd9     G              Em7               D
And every time I look at you it's like the first time
Cadd9     G         Em7             D
I fell in love with careless man's careful daughter
Cadd9      G          Em7          D
She is the best thing that's ever been mine

Cadd9 G Em7 D
Cadd9 G Em7 D


Cadd9      G          Em7             D
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
Cadd9       G          Em7          D
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
