Verse 1 Chords:

Am                             G                                 Am

   I walked you home most days   to beat the traffic after class

                            G                                Am

With all my best intentions.   But when the weather changed, 

                                   G

like fine print, you were hard to read.

                              Am Bm5   C5     D5    

Blind-folded, eyes wide open, staring through me.



Pre-Chorus Chords:

F                     G                     C

  I never heard the words that were spoken,

                    G                         F

With the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.

                     G                      Am

I never thought the whispers were true â€˜til now…



Chorus Chords:

Am      C             Am            G

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.

Am      C           Am 

I know now what I couldn’t have,

              G               F

I’ve gone too far to turn it back

              Am              G

I’ve gone too far to turn it back



Verse 2: Use verse 1 Chords

Followed you home halfway, over the fence to your backyard,

With all my best intentions.

And through your window frame, outstretched and lying on your bed,

Blind-folded, eyes wide open, staring through me.



Pre-Chorus Chords:

I never heard the words that were spoken,

with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.

I never look at you like I used to now



Chorus Chords:

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.

I know now what I couldn’t have,

I’ve gone too far to turn it back

I’ve gone too far to turn it back

Bridge:

    C                               G                 F   

Uninvited, no one knows how much I care, how bad you are,

              C

How good we’d be, but you won’t let me in

    G 

Goodnight I’m leaving.



Pre-Chorus Chords:

I never heard the words that were spoken,

with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.

I never thought the whispers were true â€˜til now…



Chorus Chords:

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.

I know now what I couldn’t have,

I’ve gone too far to turn it back

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.

I know now what I couldn’t have,

I’ve gone too far to turn it back



Outro:

Am               C             Am           G               Am

   I walked you home most days,   I had the best intentions 

              C             Am            G              

I walked you home most days,   I had the best intentions

Am

    I walked you home most days...
