Verse 1:

Bb Well it all began in the back of her car F/A Gm Eb I was just 16 but I fell so hard Bb Well the years went by and she held my heart F/A Gm Eb But her love ran dry and we fell apart

Pre-Chorus

Cm F I felt her growing distant Cm I knew her love was shifting F And all that I could say was
Bb Don't tell me that it's over The book of you & I F/A Gm Now you've scribbled out my name And you've erased my favorite lines Cm There were so many chapters That we never got to write F Like cereal for dinner And staying up all night Bb I remember where we started I remember how you looked F/A Gm But now I'm missing bits and pieces Eb From the pages that you took Cm You didn't give a reason And I'll forever wonder why F We never got to finish the book of you and I

Verse 2:

Bb Well I bought a pen and I turned the page F/A Gm Eb Then I wrote about how I wished you'd stay Bb I said all the things that I never got to say F/A Gm Eb Maybe when it's done I will feel okay
Pré-Refrão Cm F That she had grown so distant Cm And that her love had shifted F I wish she felt the same
Bb Don't tell me that it's over The book of you & I F/A Gm Now you've scribbled out my name Eb And you've erased my favorite lines Cm There were so many chapters That we never got to write F Like cereal for dinner And staying up all night Bb I remember where we started I remember how you looked F/A Gm But now I'm missing bits and pieces Eb From the pages that you took Cm You never gave a reason And I'll forever wonder why F We never got to finish the book of you and I

Bridge:

Bb Don't tell me, tell me that you're leaving Gm My belly hurts, and my heart Cm Is hardly beating right F I hate to beg but I'll try one last time
Bb Don't tell me that it's over The book of you & I F/A Gm Now you've scribbled out my name Eb And you've erased my favorite lines Cm There were so many chapters That we never got to write F Like cereal for dinner And staying up all night Bb I remember where we started I remember how you looked F Gm But now I'm missing bits and pieces Eb From the pages that you took Cm You never gave a reason And I'll forever wonder why F We never got to finish Bb The book of you and I
