You were in ABuenos Aires, BI was in EBuffalo

And we made a Aplan for the Bcity life
You take my Ahand and it's Ball alright
We’ll walk for Amiles Buntil our legs give outE

I Elove the way you look in the morning when you grimace at G#me
Cause I Awoke you up too Bearly, and you can't Esee
But I Elove the look in your eye when you get a little G#tipsy
Or when you tell me you Amiss meB  
How did this happen to Eme?

I love the Ascar undernBeath your chin
I love the Aplaces we’ve Bnever been
I love the Away that you Bend up in my Earms at night
I love our Abike rides Bthrough the park, you love the Alight and I Blove the dark

[Verse 1]

E G#

Been thinking bout all of the ways that I spend my time

And the thoughts in my mind

And then I think about you

E G#

Like back when we had first met and my hair was long

And I played you my song

B E

But it wasn’t the time yet

[Verse 2]

E G#

Or the night that we danced in the kitchen to sufjan’s chicago

A B E

And I prayed for tomorrow never to come

E G#

Or the conversation we had I was in a hotel hallway

A B E

You were in Buenos Aires, I was in Buffalo

[Chorus 1]

A B

And we made a plan for the city life

A B

You take my hand and it's all alright

A B E

We’ll walk for miles until our legs give out

A B

And then I'll lay down next to you

A B

We’ll talk about all the things we’ll do

A B E E7

But for now we’ll plant a garden in the backyard

[Chorus 2]

A B

I'll make my songs and you’ll save the world

I don’t belong, but I'll be here for you always

[Interlude]

E G# A B E

[Verse 3]

E G#

I love the way you look in the morning when you grimace at me

A B E

Cause I woke you up too early, and you can't see

But I love the look in your eye when you get a little tipsy

A B

Or when you tell me you miss me

How did this happen to me?

[Chorus 3]

A B

I love the scar underneath your chin

A B

I love the places we’ve never been

A B E

I love the way that you end up in my arms at night

I love our bike rides through the park, you love the light and I love the dark

But that’s alright, cause you’ve got my heart from now till then
