Verse 1:
D                     Dmaj7
  You lived down the block
   G                       (nc)
We met for the first time, at the bus stop
D                Dmaj7
  We sat side-by-side
G                         (nc)
Third seat from the back, we talked the whole ride
 
Pre-chorus 1:
Bm                       G
Six years later, you bought your first car
     D                      A   
And you told me to wait outside
    Bm                 G
And you pulled up and somebody else
     D                       A   
Was sitting in the passenger side
 
Chorus 1:
                Bm                   G
So I sat in the backseat, it didn't bother me
           D                        A   
But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
          Bm                     G
While you talked of movies I've nеver seen
      D                           A   
I realized that's how wе used to be
           Bm                  G
But now my best friend is the driver
    D                   A   
And I'm the backseat rider
 
Verse 2:
D               Dmaj7
  Maybe it's my fault
      G
Spent summer break away, and forgot to call
D                  Dmaj7
  But maybe you forgot
 G
Around this time last summer, we sat in the parking lot
 
Pre-chorus 2:
    Bm                    G
And you told me when you got your first car
      D                        A   
That you and I would go for a drive
    Bm                  G
But now we're here and somebody else
    D                       A   
Is sitting in the passenger side

But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
          Bm                     G
While you talked of movies I've nеver seen
      D                           A   
I realized that's how wе used to be

But now my best friend is the driver
    D                   A   
And I'm the backseat rider

Bm                       G                           D     A   
   You dropped me off at home, said you'll see me tomorrow
