Intro: C  
AmI wrote a love song for tChe wrong girl
AmI guess I had to go through hell with her just to get to yCou
AmPeople talk bad about what they don't know
People talk bCad when they can't see the truth
Like Gthe way my heart goes crazy when you walk in the rFoom
AmYou are the sad girl who lost her roCcket
I had a dAmream about you 
About a year before we fell in lCove
You lost your dAmrag in the dream behind you
It Cis all that you can see
EveGn though it isn't real it looks so big
But you cFan't see me
CYou are my eveBmrything, everyday
FYou ruin me for anGybody else
CYou make all thBme old things new
With the soFund of your voice and the eGasy way you move
CYou are my eveBmrything, everyday

I wrote a love song for the wrong girl

Like the way my heart goes crazy when you walk in the room

Am C

You are the sad girl who lost her rocket

I had a dream about you

You lost your drag in the dream behind you

It is all that you can see

Even though it isn't real it looks so big

But you can't see me

C Bm

You are my everything, everyday

F G

You ruin me for anybody else

C Bm

You make all the old things new

With the sound of your voice and the easy way you move

I will build a rocket for the girl

Someday

So please stop pushing me away

You gotta let go of the pain, Baby

F C

You gotta let go of the way things used to be

This life gets dark sometimes

Good things can be hard to see

Now I'm good for you

You are perfect for me

C Bm

You are my everything, everyday

You ruin me for anybody else

You make all the old things new
