[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G G/B
You like me more than you think you do.
D6sus4 G/F#
That's just how it begins with you.
Cadd9 G/B Cadd9
Squeezes, and the small talk, and the "Oh are you going to that party next door."
G G/B D6sus4 Cadd9
Wait for the stars to align. Wait for this town to knock us into each other.
Cadd9 G/B Cadd9
If it happens, then it happens, and if it doesn't happen, well then "Oh well."
G/F#
Or so we'll say.
[Chorus]
C G G/B Cadd9
'Cause you're the sun in my eyes, you're the sand in my sneaker.
Cadd9 G/B
If I say "I love you," does that make me weaker.
G G/B Cadd9
Sometimes we choose things that we don't understand.
G G/F#
I gave my heart to the boy with the slippery hands.
G
[Verse]
G G/B D6sus4
Curlin' along on Michigan's highway. Swimmin' fast through scrambled egg grease.
Cadd9 G/B Cadd9
And we'll kiss on the fences, and we'll talk in present tenses just for now.
G G/B D6sus4 Cadd9
How long has your dad been drinkin'? What are you thinkin' when you're fallin' asleep?
Cadd9 G/B
You know the darkness sometimes scares me, but with you it makes me smile,
Cadd9 G/F#
so I think that I'll stay for a while.
[Chorus]
C G G/B Cadd9
'Cause you're the sun in my eyes, you're the sand in my sneaker.
Cadd9 G/B
If I say "I MISS YOU," does that make me weaker.
G G/B Cadd9
Sometimes we choose things that we don't understand.
G G/F#
I gave my heart to the boy with the slippery hands.
[Verse]
G G/B G6sus4 Cadd9 Cadd9
Now you're driving away fast. Told myself that I wouldn't spare nothing that's worth loving.
G/B G
Thought we were something worth fighting for. Ooooh!
G G/B D6sus4 Cadd9
You were a calming in my bones. You were soothing to my worry.
Cadd9 G/B Cadd9
But now we're alone 'cause I couldn't be the home that you were seeking.
G G/F#
You know I tried!
[Chorus]
C G G/B
Sun in my eyes, you're the sand in my sneaker.
Cadd9 G/B
If I say "I'M SORRY," does that make me weaker.
G G/B Cadd9
Sometimes we choose things that we don't understand.
G G/F# Cadd9
I gave my heart to the boy with the slippery hands.
G G/F#
I fell in love with the boy with the slippery hands.
G G/F# G
I gave my love to the boy with the slippery hands.
