[Intro]

G
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
G
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

[First Part]

C9             G               D
  You were in college working part-time, waiting tables
C9        G          D
  Left a small town never looked back
C9         G          D
  I was a flight risk with a fear of falling
C9                G           D
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

[Pre-Chorus]

C9  G   D
     I say can you believe it?
C9  G  D                       C9    G
        As we're lying on the couch
    D
The moment I could see it
C9    G   D
Yes, yes,  I can see it now

[Chorus]

C9                        G
  Do you remember we were sitting there by the water
D                         Em         D/F#
  You put your arm around me for the first time
C9                       G
  You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
D                       Em           D/F#     C9
  You are the best thing that's ever been mine

[Segunda Parte]

C9       G                 D
  Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
C9               G          D
  And there's a drawer of my things at your place
C9                G               D
  You learned my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded?
C9               G             D
  You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

[Pre-Chorus]

C9  G  D
        We got bills to pay
C9  G  D                        C9  G  D
        We got nothing figured out
                          C9   G
When it was hard to take, yes yes
D
This is what I thought about

[Chorus]

C9                         G
  Do you remember we were sitting there by the water
D                         Em         D/F#
  You put your arm around me for the first time
C9                       G
  You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
D                       Em           D/F#
  You are the best thing that's ever been mine

C9                         G
  Do you remember all the city lights on the water
D                       Em            D/F#
  You saw me start to believe for the first time
C9                       G
  You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
D                       Em           D/F#
  You are the best thing that's ever been mine

( C9  G  D )

                 C G D
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

[Bridge]

        Em                   C
And I remember that fight, 2:30 AM
       D
'Cause everything was slipping right out of our hands
Em                      C                         D
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

[Pre-Chorus]

C9  G         D
     Brace myself for the goodbye
C9  G              D
     Cause that's all I've ever known
C9  G     D
     And you took me by surprise
C9  G               D                C
     You said I'll never leave you alone

[Chorus]

         C9                   G
You said, "I remember how we felt sittin' by the water
D                             Em              D/F#
  And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
C9                       G
  I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
D
  She is the best thing that's ever been mine

C9        G
Hold on, make it last
D        Em         D/F#
Hold on, never turn back

C9                       G
  You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
D                                          C  G D
  You are the best thing that's ever been mine

 C     G    D
(Yeah, yeah) Do you believe it?
 C     G     D
(Yeah, yeah, hey) We’re gonna make it now
 C     G     D
(Yeah, yeah, hey) And I can see it
 C     G    D
 Yeah, yeah  (and I can see it now, see it now, see it now)
