The Academy Is... was a rock band which formed in 2003 in Chicago, Illinois, United States. The band's longest lasting lineup consisted of William Beckett (vocals, guitar), Mike Carden (guitar, vocals), Michael Chislett (guitar, keyboards), Adam Siska (bass) and Andy Mrotek (drums). The band released three albums - "Almost Here" (2005), "Santi" (2007) and "Fast Times at Barrington High" (2008) - before disbanding in 2011, several months after Chislett and Mrotek left the band.

tuning: standard
Bm7DAB5C#5D5E5
Bm I walked you home most days D To beat the traffic after class A With all my best intentions. Bm But when the weather changed, D Like fine print, you were hard to read. A Blind-folded, eyes wide open E7 Staring through me.
GAsus4 I never heard the words that were spoken, Bm With the rumored nights, with the rendez-vous. GAE I never thought the whispers were true 'till now...
CHORUS
BmGDA I saw things that I shouldn't have tonight, tonight BmGD I know now what I couldn't have, AG I've gone too far to turn it back GE I've gone too far to turn it back
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.
GAsus4 I never heard the words that were spoken, Bm With the rumored nights, with the rendez-vous. GAE I never look at you like I used to now
CHORUS BmGDA I saw things that I shouldn't have tonight, tonight BmGD I know now what I couldn't have, A I've gone too far to turn it back GAE I've gone too far to turn it back

D Uninvited, no one knows Bm How much I care, how bad you are, G How good we'd be, but you won't let me in E Good night I'm leaving.
GAsus4 I never heard the words that were spoken, Bm With the rumored nights, with the rendez-vous. GAE I never thought the whispers were true 'till now...
CHORUS BmGDA I saw things that I shouldn't have tonight, tonight BmGD I know now what I couldn't have, A I've gone too far to turn it back BmGDA I saw things that I shouldn't have tonight, tonight BmGD I know now what I couldn't have, A I've gone too far to turn it back
(same as above) I walked you home most days I had the best intentions I walked you home most days I had the best intentions Bm I walked you home most day
