august - Taylor Swift (Lyrics and Chords)

VERSE1:
F
 SALT AIR
Bb                    Gm 
 AND THE RUST ON YOUR DOOR
   
I NEVER NEEDED ANYTHING MORE
F
 WHISPERS
Bb           Gm
 OF "ARE YOU SURE?"
           
"NEVER HAVE I EVER BEFORE"


CHORUS:
    F
BUT I CAN SEE US
    
LOST IN THE MEMORY
Bb                                   Gm
AUGUST SLIPPED AWAY INTO A MOMENT IN TIME
                    C
'CAUSE IT WAS NEVER MINE
    F            
AND I CAN SEE US TWISTED IN BEDSHEETS
Bb         
AUGUST SIPPED AWAY
                 Gm
LIKE A BOTTLE OF WINE
                      C
'CAUSE YOU WERE NEVER MINE


VERSE2:
F
 YOUR BACK
Bb           Gm
 BENEATH THE SUN

WISHING I COULD WRITE MY NAME ON IT
F             
 WILL YOU CALL 
Bb                        Gm
 WHEN YOU'RE BACK AT SCHOOL?

I REMEMBER THINKING I HAD YOU


CHORUS:
    Dm
BUT I CAN SEE US
 
LOST IN THE MEMORY
Bb                                   Gm
AUGUST SLIPPED AWAY INTO A MOMENT IN TIME
                    C
'CAUSE IT WAS NEVER MINE
    Dm 
AND I CAN SEE US TWISTED IN BEDSHEETS
Bb 
AUGUST SIPPED AWAY

'CAUSE YOU WERE NEVER MINE

 BACK WHEN WE WERE STILL CHANGING FOR THE BETTER
                  Gm
WANTING WAS ENOUGH
                      C
FOR ME, IT WAS ENOUGH
                F
TO LIVE FOR THE HOPE OF IT ALL
                     Bb 
CANCEL PLANS JUST IN CASE YOU'D CALL
                              Gm 
AND SAY "MEET ME BEHIND THE MALL"
                      C
SO MUCH FOR SUMMER LOVE, AND SAYING "US"
                     F            Bb

YOU WEREN'T MINE TO LOSE

'CAUSE IT WAS NEVER MINE

AND I CAN SEE US TWISTED IN BEDSHEETS
Bb

              F          
REMEMBER WHEN I PULLED UP

AND THEN CANCELED MY PLANS
   
JUST IN CASE YOU'D CALL

BACK WHEN I WAS LIVING FOR THE HOPE OF IT ALL
