Taylor Swift - The Making of 'cardigan' | Vevo Footnotes chords
Start Jamming...
[C] [Fm] Vintage tea, brand [Bb] new phone, high heels on, [C] [Ab] cobblestones
When you are young [Cm] they assume [Bb] you know nothing
[Fm] Steak and smile, black [Bb] lipstick, [Fm] sensual [Ab] politics
When you are young [Cm] they assume [Bb] you know nothing
I [Cm] [Eb] knew you, [Cm] dancing [Bb] in your Levi's, drunk [Fm] under a streetlight
[Ab] I knew you, [Cm] hand [Bb] under my sweatshirt, baby [Fm] kiss it bad to the right
And when I felt like I was [Bb] in a cardigan under [Ab] someone's bed
You put me on and said I [Bb] was your favorite
[Fm] A friend to all is a friend [Bb] to none, these two girls, who's [Ab] the one?
When you are young they assume [Bb] you know nothing
But [Cm] [Eb] I knew you, playing [Bb] hide and seek and giving me your weekends
[Ab] I knew you, your heartbeat [Bb] on the highline, once in twenty lifetimes
[Ab] And when I felt [Cm] like I was in a cardigan under someone's bed
[Eb] You put me on and said I [Ab] was your favorite
To [C] [Cm]
[Bb] [Ab]
kissing cars in downtown bar was all [Cm] we needed
You [Bb] drew stars around my scars but now [Ab] I'm bleeding
[Eb] Cause I knew you, stepping [Bb] on the last train, marked me like a bloodstain
[Ab] I, I knew you, tried to [Bb] change the ending, Peter losing Wendy
I, [Eb] I knew you, leaving [Bb] like a father, running like water
And [Ab] when you are young they assume you [Bb] know nothing
[Gm] But I knew you, [Eb] lingered like a tattoo case, [Cm] I knew [Bb] you'd haunt all of my wild days
The smell [Ab] of smoke would hang around this long
Cause I knew [Bb] everything when I was young, [Gm] I knew [Eb] I'd curse you for the longest time
Chasing [Bb] shadows in the grocery line, I knew [Ab] you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be [Bb] standing in my front porch light, I knew you'd come [Fm] back to me
You'd [Bb] come back to me, yeah you'd [Ab] come back to me, yeah you'd come [Bb] back
And [Ab] when I felt like I was [Cm] in a cardigan under someone's bed
[Eb] You put [Cm] me on and said I was [Ab] your favorite
[Cm]
[Eb] [Cm] [Fm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Cm]
[Eb] [Cm] [Fm] [Ab] [Eb]
