Key: G Major BPM: ♩ = 108 Time: 4/4
|C     |G     |Em    |D     |

|C                      |G                            |
   When the morning came we, were cleaning incense off
|Em                         |D                 |
 your, vinyl shelf ‘cause we lost track of time
|C                          |G                |Em         |D             |
again, laughing with my feet in your lap, like you were my closest friend
|C                       |G                      |
  “How’d we end up on the floor anyway?”, you say
|Em                                   |D                |
  “Your roommate’s cheap-ass screw top rosé, that’s how”
|C      |G            |D   |D   |
   I see you every day now

   |C      |G       |Em       |D              |
And I chose you, the one I was dancing with in
   |C       |G            |Em       |D             |
New York, no shoes, looked up at the sky and it was
   |C                              |G                      |
The burgundy on my t-shirt when you splashed your wine into
              |Em                             |D             |
me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was
   |C                                 |G             |
The mark they saw on my collarbone the rust that grew
                      |Em                          |D              |
between telephones the lips I used to call home, so scarlet, it was

 |C     |G     |Em    |D     |
maroon

|C                      |G                           |Em                     |D               |
   When the silence came we, were shaking blind and hazy, how the hell did we lose sight of us
|C                      |G                        |Em               |D          |
again? Sobbing with your head in your hands, ain’t that the way shit always ends 
|C                         |G                  |Em                               |D    |
   You were standing hollow-eyed in the hallway,  carnations you had thought were roses
      |C         |G            |D        |D                    |
That’s us, I feel you no matter what, the rubies that I gave up

   |C     |G       |Em       |D              |
And I lost you, the one I was dancing with in
   |C       |G            |Em       |D                      |
New York, no shoes, looked up at the sky and it was (maroon)
   |C                              |G                      |

              |Em                             |D                      |
me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was (maroon)
   |C                                 |G             |

                      |Em                          |D                     |
between telephones the lips I used to call home, so scarlet, it was maroon

     |C                 |G                   |Em              |D         |
And I wake with your memory over me, that’s a real fuckin’ legacy, legacy
     |C                 |G                   |Em              |D           |
And I wake with your memory over me, that’s a real fuckin’ legacy, to leave

   |C                              |G                      |
The burgundy on my t-shirt when you splashed your wine into
              |Em                             |D                      |
me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was (maroon)
   |C                                 |G             |
The mark they saw on my collarbone the rust that grew
                      |Em                          |D             |
between telephones the lips I used to call home, so scarlet it was

 |C     |G     |Em     |D       |
maroon,                   it was
 |C     |G     |Em     |D              |
maroon,                   it was maroon
