Am  Em  F  C


[Verse 1]
    Am                          Em
You dropped those letters on me hard
F                      C
I'm not ready for this part
      Am                      Em
We're having fun, ain't that enough?
    F                   C
And labels only mess it up


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Am
'Cause now we're lying here
     Em
It's late at night
            F
You say you love me, girl
        C
I don't know why
            Am           Em
It might be too late to apologize
        F                       N.C.
Baby, I can't just say it though


[Chorus]
                                           Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C                                          Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C                                 N.C.
How can I tell you that I love you?


[Verse 2]
Am                         Em
Teardrops on your steering wheel (Steering wheel)
F                         C
Broken hearts are hard to heal
       Am                              Em
Wish I could tell you what you want to hear
      F                       C
But I can't control the way I feel, yeah


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Am
'Cause now we're lying here
     Em
It's late at night
            F
You say you love me, girl
        C
I don't know why (Don't know why)
            Am           Em
It might be too late to apologize
        F                       N.C.
Baby, I can't just say it though (Uh)


[Chorus]
                                           Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C                                          Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C                                 N.C.
How can I tell you that I love you?


[Post-Chorus]

How can I tell you, tell you?
C
How can I tell you? Oh

How can I tell you? Oh


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Am
'Cause now we're lying here
     Em
It's late at night (Late at night)
            F
You say you love me, girl
        C
I don't know why (Don't know why)
            Am           Em
It might be too late to apologize (Apologize)
        F                       N.C.
Baby, I can't just say it though


[Chorus]
                                           Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C                                          Am  Em  F
How can I tell you that I love you? When I don't
C
How can I tell you that I love you?


[Post-Chorus]
Am
How can I tell you, tell you?
Em
How can I tell you? Oh
F
How can I tell you, tell you?
C
How can I tell you? Oh
Am
How can I tell you, tell you?
Em
