(verse 1)
Em         (D/F#) G           
   went out last  friday 
(G/B) C                  B7
night,        felt like i was ready 
to
Em           (D/F# ) G        
   pretty pair of   green 
(G/B) C                        
eyes,       sideways glance from 
B7
across the room
Em           (D/F#)    G            
   G (strum)
   pretty soon we were locked in 
conversation

(pre-chorus)
Am7                            
 i could've kissed her, leaning
Dadd4*
 up against the driver door
Am7                             
She was almost everything that i've 
D9
been looking for

(chorus)
                G           Dadd4
She was almost you, almost you
Fadd2           C               G
      almost someone to hold on to
        Dadd4  Fadd2              
Almost you,          a love to 
C               G
last my whole life
                  F               
I swear and i think i've found it, 
C
the perfect love, she lets me down
G                  F             
   best someone else could hope 
     C
to do
Is take second place and be almost
Em  G (G/B) C  B7
   you...

Em              ( D/F# ) G

(G/B) C                    B7
      you and me we were holding 
hands
Em                     G       
   we were young and so in 
(G/B) C
