Verse 1:
G       G             Em
 Betty, I won’t make assumptions
      Dsus4                C
About why you changed your homeroom
                          Dsus4
But I think it’s cause of me
G       G              Em
 Betty, one time I was riding
      Dsus4             C
on my skateboard when I passed your house
                     Dsus4
It’s like I couldn’t breathe
 
Pre-Chorus:
G             G            Em
You heard the rumors from Inez
            Dsus4            C
You can’t believe a word she says most times
                     Dsus4
But this time it was true
    Em          D       G   C
The worst thing that I ever did
    Em     D      C    D
was what I did to you
 
Chorus:
              G                 G  
But if I just showed up at your party
          Em                 D
Would you have me? Would you want me?
          C             Em
Would you tell me to go xxxx myself
   D
Or lead me to the garden?
       G                G  
In the garden would you trust me
     Em              D             C
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
         Em           D
I’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything
                  G
But I know I miss you

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

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

G       G                Em
 Betty, I’m here on your doorstep
      Dsus4              C
And I planned it out for weeks now
                         Dsus4
But it’s finally sinking in
G       G                Em
 Betty, right now is the last time
      Dsus4            C
I can dream about what happens when
                Dsus4
You see my face again
    Em   D       G       C
The only thing I want to do
   Em      D     C    D
Is make it up to you
     G                 G    Em D C Bm D

Will you have me will you love me
         D              Dbm
Will you kiss me on the porch

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