How Did We Get From Saying I Love You


Intro:  G D A D G D A D

        D               G             D                G
It's a cold day for September was all I thought to say
        D               G         A     D       G A
When I saw you on the street the other day
        D                     G                 D                 G
I knew something's changed between us, all the talk we made was small
          D             G                   D                 G A
But what do you say to someone when they've heard you say it all?
         Bm             A          G            A
It's an awkward conversation, in a most peculiar way


Chorus
            G                   D                 A
How did we get from saying I love you to I'll see you around someday

GDAD (x 2)

It seemed like only days ago, we had so much to say
Did we take it all for granted, did it all get thrown away
"It calls for rain this afternoon", you finally replied
And there was a stuttering silence, that I felt my mouth go dry
We'll just talk about the weather, cause there's not much more to say

Chorus (x2)
            G                   D                 A                 D
How did we get from saying I love you to I'll see you around someday
            G                   D                 A
How did we get from saying I love you to I'll see you around someday

GDAD (x2)

        G            D
Has all the ice been broken,
        A            D
all our surfaces been scratched
        G               D
Have all the words been spoken,
        A               D
have we finally met our match?

        A       Bm            A           G             A
Cause it's an awkward coversation, in a most peculiar way

Chorus (x3)
