Verse 1:
C       C             Am
 Betty, I won’t make assumptions
      Gsus4                F
About why you changed your homeroom
                          Gsus4
But I think it’s cause of me
C       C              Am
 Betty, one time I was riding
      Gsus4             F
on my skateboard when I passed your house
                     Gsus4
It’s like I couldn’t breathe
 
Pre-Chorus:
C             C            Am
You heard the rumors from Inez
            Gsus4            F
You can’t believe a word she says most times
                     Gsus4
But this time it was true
    Am          G       C   F
The worst thing that I ever did
    Am     G      F    G
was what I did to you
 
Chorus:
              C                 C  
But if I just showed up at your party
          Am                 G
Would you have me? Would you want me?
          F             Am
Would you tell me to go xxxx myself
   G
Or lead me to the garden?
       C                C  
In the garden would you trust me
     Am              G             F
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
         Am           G
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything
                  C
But I know I miss you

C       C               Am
 Betty, I know where it all went wrong
     G                 F
Your favorite song was playing
                         G
from the far side of the gym
C      C             Am
 I was nowhere to be found
           G
I hate the crowds you know that
F                          G
 Plus I saw you dance with him
 
Pre-Chorus:

Bridge:
Am                    G
I was walking home on broken cobblestones
              F
Just thinking of you when she pulled up
       G
Like a figment of my worst intentions
Am                            G
She said, "James get in let’s drive." Those days
            F
turned into nights, slept next to her
   G                           C
But I dreamt of you all summer long

 Betty, I’m here on your doorstep

And I planned it out for weeks now
                         Gsus4
But it’s finally sinking in
C       C                Am
 Betty, right now is the last time
      Gsus4            F
I can dream about what happens when
                Gsus4
You see my face again
    Am   G       C       F
The only thing I want to do
   Am      G     F    G
Is make it up to you

In front of all your stupid friends?

If you kiss me, will it be
            Bm
just like I dreamed it
        A                 G
Will it patch your broken wings

But I know I miss you
