Outgrown Shirts

Writer's picture: Bj DaoustBj Daoust

Capo 2


D                                        G                                 D

Just a couple months from now, I’ll be five thousand miles from home


Just a couple minutes later, we’ll both be crying on the phone


I’ll be thinking about all the nights of fights we used to have


D                     G                             D

But it all won’t really matter cause I’ll miss you, dad


D A Bm A G A


D                                    G              D

Couple weeks into school, I’ll be saying I feel alone


And I’ll regret all those times I told you I wanna leave home


I’ll be thinking what all this was for all along


But then that’s when I’ll look to you, mom


D A Bm A G A



Chorus:

G A D A Bm


I gotta go, even though I know it hurts


And you’ll look in my room and see all those outgrown shirts


And we’ll always remember, the summer that I left


D A G G A D


And with all those tears we wept, we’ll know it’s for the best



Verse:

DGD


So, I’ll be trying to work life out on my own


And I’ll keep in touch with the people I used to know


Then 3 months later, I’ll reminisce


And it’s at that moment that I’ll really miss you, sis


Chorus:

G A D A Bm


I gotta go, even though I know it hurts


And you’ll look in my room and see all those outgrown shirts


And we’ll always remember the summer that I left


D A G G A D


And with all those tears we wept, we’ll know it’s for the best


G A D G           G A D

And with all those tears we wept, we’ll know it’s for the best
