Verse 1:
D       D             Bm
 Betty, I won’t make assumptions
      Asus4                G
About why you changed your homeroom
                          Asus4
But I think it’s cause of me
D       D              Bm
 Betty, one time I was riding
      Asus4             G
on my skateboard when I passed your house
                     Asus4
It’s like I couldn’t breathe
 
Pre-Chorus:
D             D            Bm
You heard the rumors from Inez
            Asus4            G
You can’t believe a word she says most times
                     Asus4
But this time it was true
    Bm          A       D   G
The worst thing that I ever did
    Bm     A      G    A
was what I did to you
 
Chorus:
              D                 D  
But if I just showed up at your party
          Bm                 A
Would you have me? Would you want me?
          G             Bm
Would you tell me to go xxxx myself
   A
Or lead me to the garden?
       D                D  
In the garden would you trust me
     Bm              A             G
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
         Bm           A
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything
                  D
But I know I miss you

Verse 2:
D       D               Bm
 Betty, I know where it all went wrong
     A                 G
Your favorite song was playing
                         A
from the far side of the gym
D      D             Bm
 I was nowhere to be found
           A
I hate the crowds you know that
G                          A
 Plus I saw you dance with him
 
Pre-Chorus:

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

D       D                Bm
 Betty, I’m here on your doorstep
      Asus4              G
And I planned it out for weeks now
                         Asus4
But it’s finally sinking in
D       D                Bm
 Betty, right now is the last time
      Asus4            G
I can dream about what happens when
                Asus4
You see my face again
    Bm   A       D       G
The only thing I want to do
   Bm      A     G    A
Is make it up to you
     D                 D    Bm A G Gbm A
So I showed up at your party

Will you have me will you love me
         A              Abm
Will you kiss me on the porch

In front of all your stupid friends?
       E                E   
If you kiss me, will it be
            Dbm
just like I dreamed it
        B                 A
Will it patch your broken wings
         Abm          Gbm            B
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything
             E        B A
But I know I miss you
