[Intro]
E A C#m B (x4)
[Verse 1]
E A
It must have been October, the last time that we spoke
N.C.
And though I think about you,
E
I decided that it's safer where we left it,
N.C.
Safer for us both
A
That stuff was a million years ago
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B E
When you got accepted, I went loopy
A C#m
Hoping you'd be on my team
B A
When you got accepted, I was totally ridiculous
[Chorus]
E B F# A
We were the ones who always felt awkward, socially cornered
E
And I still feel the same
B F#
Still dreading the laughter, like, what does it matter?
A
It's not what I'm after, anyway
[Instrumental]
E A C#m B (x2)
[Verse 2]
E
I won't take a compliment,
A
but I will ruminate for hours on a single mean remark
E
Collecting them like ornaments,
A
the nasty things that people say,
C#m
that I save up to think about when it gets dark
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B E
When you got accepted, I went loopy
A C#m
Hoping you'd be on my team
B A
When you got accepted, I was totally ridiculous
[Chorus]
E B F# A
We were the ones who always felt awkward, socially cornered
E
And I still feel the same
B F#
Still dreading the laughter, like, what does it matter?
A
It's not what I'm after, anyway
[Guitar Solo]
E B F# A (x2)
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B E
When you got accepted, I went loopy
A C#m
Hoping you'd be on my team
B A F
When you got accepted, I was right
[Instrumental]
E A C#m B (x2)
[Outro]
E A C#m B E A C#m B
I can't help feeling like I did that October day
E A C#m B
Ten years later, I'm so glad that it's over
E A C#m B
But I can't help feeling like I did that October...
E A C#m B
Ten years later, I'm so glad that it's over
E A C#m B E
But I can't help feeling like I did that October day
