C F Am G

I heard a symphony when he started talking

First sight, time stop, kinda thing

Told my mama "we're in love" she said

Am D7

"you're too young to feel that way"

F G C F

But that's just something people say

[Verse 2]

That truck we rode around in

F Am G

Has lost some of its po-lish

We watch leaves fall three times

F Am G

And I went off to col-lege

F G

He said "I'll call you every day

Am D7

nothing 'bout us is gonna change"

F G C

But that's just something people say

[Chorus]

Am G

Maybe we meant it

F C

And maybe we didn't

Am G F C

Maybe our words are just umbrellas for the rain

Am G F C

I didn't think I'd ever see the day

Dm G

That "I love you" would turn into

C F Am G

Just something people say

[Bridge]

My tear-filled can't take back

F Am G

Wish I never met you

It all fell out so fast

F Am G

As a foolish response to

F G Am D7

His we ain't breaking up we're just taking a little break

F G C

'Cause that just something people say

[Chorus]

Am G

Maybe we meant it

F C

And maybe we didn't

Am G F C

Maybe our words are just umbrellas for the rain

Am G F C

I didn't think I'd ever see the day

Dm G

That "I love you" would turn into

C F Am G

Just something people say

[Outro]

Am G

If I saw you out

F C

Somewhere downtown

Am G F C

Would I use "good to see you" as an umbrella for the rain

Am G F C

I didn't think I'd ever see the day

Dm G

That "I love you" would turn into

C F Am G

Just something people say
