Linus And Me

A                     F#m
linus and me, we were talking about 
first loves,
Bm                           D
how they burn out, leave you charred
                          A
and then changed completely.
A                        F#m
i thought about that one summer 
burning in the suburbs:
Bm                     D
me and caroline making eyes and 
waiting on the subway.
A                            F#m
she'd sought me out like the stamp 
that finished her collection,
Bm                    D
like a dying breed in danger of 
extinction,
       A                           
and we fell into each other without
     F#m
 the slightest bit of caution,
Bm                     D
until the whole thing fell out from 
under our feet.
F#m                      A
i see caroline sometimes walking 
down the street,
        Bm                     
and her head’s all full up with 
       D
those people she meets.
        F#m                   
i wanna call out and say "hey, 
            A
thanks for everything, caroline"
Bm                       D       
but she don't go by that name no 
      D
more…


[Chorus]
           D                  
and if she saw me tonight, she 
          A
wouldn't look at me twice,
        E                          
but you know, don't you know, it's 
  F#m               E D
alright… alright... alright.
D                      A
me and caroline walked different 
paths in life,
        E                          
but you know, don't you know, it's 
  F#m             E D
alright… alright… alright.

[Verse 2]
A                    F#m
tommy and me, we had committed a 
crime,
Bm                    D
not a lot to it, just something we 
did at the time.
A                    F#m
there was war in the air and it 
troubled my mind.
Bm                         D     
there were secrets between us, 
           F#m
but i'd been sure
              A                    
the things we shared, well they 
  Bm
were ours,
                        D
but there was something there i 
hadn't seen before
       F#m              A
when i saw tommy in his military 
uniform:
Bm                           D   D
he'd just been looking for a war.


[Chorus]
          D                      
and if he saw me tonight he might 
     A
not look me in the eye,
        E                          
but you know, don't you know, it's 
  F#m             E D
alright… alright… alright.
D                    A
me and tommy we had different wars 
to fight,
        E                          
but you know, don't you know, it's 
     F#m      E D
just gotta be alright.

[Bridge]
F#m                       A
it took a while thinking about 
someone new
         Bm                      
before i broke and took down that 
     D
old picture you drew.
              F#m                  
you know they say moving on is just
  A
 something you do.
      Bm                       
could be. i don’t know. i think 
 D                            F#m
sometimes it just happens to you.
F#m           A                  
you find your path and you take 
    Bm
that road.
              D                 F#m
when you look back, i hope that know
              A                    
the things we share and the ways we
 Bm
 grow,
               D                   
they’re due to all the people we've
   F#m
 known.
A      Bm  D
oh oh ohhh
      F#m A
ohhohohhh
    B#m
ohohohhhh


[Chorus]
             D                     
and when you saw me tonight i know 
   A
it didn't feel right,
        E                       
but you know, don't you know, it 
       F#m           E     D
takes time, yeah it takes time.
D                     A
me and you, we held a little too 
tight.
        E                          
but you know, don't you know, it's 
     F#m      E D
just gotta be alright.
