[Verse]Em AVintage tee, brand new phoneGHigh heels on cobblestonesAWhen you are young they assume you know nothingEm A GSequined smile, black lipstick, sensual politicsAWhen you are young, they assume you know nothing[Pre-Chorus]D ABut I knew you, dancin' in your Levi'sGDrunk under a streetlight, IAI knew you, hand under my sweatshirtBaby, kiss it better, I[Chorus]Em AAnd when I felt like I was an old cardiganGUnder someone's bedAYou put me on and said I was your favorite[Verse]Em AA friend to all is a friend to noneGChase two girls, lose the oneAWhen you are young, they assume you know nothing[Pre-Chorus]DBut I knew youAPlaying hide-and-seek andGGiving me your weekends, II knew youAYour heartbeat on the High LineOnce in twenty lifetimes, I[Chorus]G BmAnd when I felt like I was an old cardiganDUnder someone's bedAYou put me on and said I was your favorite[Instrumental]G BmA G
[Verse]GTo kiss in cars, and downtown barsBmWas all we neededAYou drew stars around my scarsGBut now I'm bleedin'D'Cause I knew youASteppin' on the last trainGMarked me like a bloodstain, II knew youATried to change the endingPeter losin' Wendy, IDI knew youA GLeavin' like a father, runnin' like water, IAWhen you are young, they assume you know nothing[Bridge]DBut I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kissAI knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifsGThe smell of smoke would hang around this longA'Cause I knew everything when I was youngDI knew I'd curse you for the longest timeAChasin' shadows in the grocery lineGI knew you'd miss me once the thrill expiredAAnd you'd be standin' in my front porch lightEmAnd I knew you'd come back to meAAnd you'd come back to meGAnd you'd come back to meAAnd you'd come back[Chorus]G BmAnd when I felt like I was an old cardiganDUnder someone's bedAYou put me on and said I was your favorite
