are you okay Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
You look older than I [G]remember
And I guess [C]that some of that wear
may be my fault
And I can[G]'t quite figure out
which fight had been our last
Or if [C]that one even mattered much at all

[Verse 2]
Disillu[G]sioned as snow angels who thought
their wings were permanent
In seclu[C]sion, you were faithful or
at least hid your finer print
How [G]dumb I was, in hindsight,
to think that I could really know
Much [C]of anything about anything, though
[G]And does

[Verse 3]
being in Los Angeles
bring me to mind?
And [C]does wine and Billie Holiday
still make you cry?
[G]When you call,
is it to [C]open up [G]a door to better days?
Or is it sim[C]ple as the way
you wanna say
"Are you [G]okay?"
[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
An empty cup can't fill another
Why did [C]that take us so long
to figure out?
[G]There were sides of you where I swore,
"I could love her"
But to love [C]takes so much more
than knowing how

[Verse 5]
And I'm [G]still in that apartment where
we were big kids playing house
Where we [C]bought the cups and curtains
to imitate settling down
And I kep[G]t some of our pictures
and I wear my birthday watch
To remind [C]me of the man
I'm glad I'm not

[Verse 6]
Does your new [G]boyfriend know how
much I still mean to you?
[C]Do you change some of the details
for a more convenient truth?
Can he trans[G]late how you hold his
hand into levels of your pain?
Does he know [C]to ask,
despite what you may say?
Are you [G]okay?
[C]

[Verse 7]
You're a [G]child on an airplane,
you fear what's out of your control
And you love [C]New York 'cause it was
somewhere else for you to go
[G]And you dyed your hair so you could look
your mirror in the eyes
And pretend [C]she's someone
you don't recognize

[Verse 8]
So it's [G]time to lose my number and let
the past be where we stay
When you've [C]had too much to drink again,
[D]someone [C]else can hold your waist
We were [G]never quite as good as
how your memory [C]replays
And I don't owe you no answer
when you say
[G]"Are you okay?"
[C]

[Verse 9]
Are you [G]okay?
