Cardigan

Dm                       G
  Vintage tee, brand new phone
                     F
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young, they assume you 
         G
know nothing
Dm                          G
  Sequined smile, black lipstick
            F
Sensual politics
When you are young, they assume you 
          G
know nothing

C
 But I knew you
                G
Dancin' in your Levi's
                            F
Drunk under a streetlight, I
I knew you
               G
Hand under my sweatshirt

Baby, kiss it better, I

 Dm                               
And when I felt like I was an old 
G
cardigan
                   F
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your 
 G
favorite
Dm                                
   A friend to all is a friend to 
G
none
                          F
Chase two girls, lose the one
When you are young, they assume you 
       G
know nothing

C
 But I knew you
                    G
Playing hide-and-seek and
                          F
Giving me your weekends, I

I knew you
                      G
Your heartbeat on the High Line
                          F
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
And when I felt like I was an old 
Am
cardigan
                C
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your 
F
favorite

( F  Am  G  F )

           F
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
           Am
Was all we needed
         G
You drew stars around my scars
            F
But now I'm bleedin'

C
 'Cause I knew you
                G
Steppin' on the last train
                             F
Marked me like a bloodstain, I

I knew you
                   G
Tried to change the ending
                    C
Peter losing Wendy, I

   I knew you
               G
Leavin' like a father
                      F
Running like water, I
And when you are young, they assume 
          G
you know nothing
                 C
But I knew you'd linger like a 
tattoo kiss
             G
I knew you'd haunt all of my 
what-ifs
              F
The smell of smoke would hang around
 this long
              G
'Cause I knew everything when I was 
young
           C
I knew I'd curse you for the longest
 time
        G
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
             F
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill
 expired
             G
And you'd be standin' in my front 
porch light
                      Dm
And I knew you'd come back to me
           G
You'd come back to me
               F
And you'd come back to me
               G
And you'd come back
F                                 
   And when I felt like I was an 
  Am
old cardigan
                    C
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your 
F
