[Intro]
C G D   C G D

[Verse 1]
 C G         D
 I   feel so high school
        C      D
every time I look at you
 C G       D
 I   wanna find you in a
 C             D
 crowd just to hide
 from you

[Chorus]
          G
 And in a blink of
a crinkling eye
     C
 I’m sinking, our
fingers entwined
        Em
 Cheeks pink in the
 twinkling lights
 D
 Tell me ’bout the
first time you saw me
      G
 I’ll drink what you
think and I’m high
      C
 From smoking your
jokes all damn night
     Em
 The brink of a
 wrinkle in time
 D
 Bittersweet 16 suddenly
