[Intro]
C F C F
 
[Verse 1]
C                       F
Today I thought of you
C                       F
It doesn’t happen often
Em                      Dm
   I was walking in the rain
    Em                        G
The light hit, the leaves softened
 
Under my feet
 
C                F
Road unpaved and true
C                                     F
Been six years since I even talked to you
Em                   Dm
There was no cooling down
Em                                          G
You just wrapped my hand in yours, put your head down
 
Said you were sorry, I
 
C                            F
Started to question what was real
C                                    
Held tight to the lapel of your coat 
                          F
just to have something to feel
Em                          Dm
    You said that you’d be going
Em                                    G
Couldn’t believe you were telling the truth
 
There was no way of knowing
 
C                          F
I used to find you just by chance
C                        F
At the back of a concert bar 

you had me in a trance
Em                     Dm
And I read our letters now
Em                                      G
How could you have felt those things, packed up
 
And driven out of town
 
 
[Chorus]
C                                F
When every silver civic was your car
Em                      Dm
   And I was gonna be a star
    F        G        C
And you were gonna be mine
C                                F
When every silver civic was your car
Em                      Dm
   And I was gonna be a star
F               F        C
   And you were gonna be mine

[Verse 2]
C                          F
Now I’m in rumpled cotton slouching
C                      F
Got my kingdom, got my couch
Em                Dm D5
  Autopilot is my pilot
Em                     G
 I roll in and I whirl out
 
C                  F
But I eat up this experience
C                       F
Careen down highways of doubt
Em                    Dm
I’m just teetering in adulthood
Em                 G
Like a flower in a drought
 
 
[Chorus]
C                                F
When every silver civic was your car
Em                      Dm
  And I was gonna be a star
    F        G        C
And you were gonna be mine
C                                F
When every silver civic was your car
Em                     Dm
  And I was gonna be a star
    F        G        C
And you were gonna be mine
C                              F
   Every silver civic was your car
C                              F
   Every silver civic was your car
C                              F
   Every silver civic was your car
