Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][D][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
Well, it [G]all began in the back of her car
[D]I was j[Em]ust sixteen, but I f[C]ell so hard
Well, the [G]years went by
and she held my heart
[D]But her [Em]love ran dry and we [C]fell apart

[Pre-chorus 1]
[D]I felt her growing dis[Em] tant
I knew her love was [C]shifting
And all that I could say was

[Chorus 1]
Don't [G]tell me that it's over,
the book of you and I
[D]Now you've [Em]scribbled out my name
And you've erased my favorite lines
There [C]were so many chapters
that we never got to write
[G]Like cer[Am]eal for dinner
and [D]staying up all night
I re[G]member where we started
I remember how you looked
But [D]now I'm [Em]missing bits and pieces
from the pages that you took
You [C]didn't give a reason,
I'll forever wonder why
[G]We nev[Am]er got to finish
the [D]book of you and [G]I

[Verse 2]
Well, I [G]bought a pen and I turned the page
[D]Then I [Em]wrote about how I [C]wish you'd stayed
I said [G]all the things that I never got to say
[D]Maybe [Em]when it's done, I will [C]feel okay

[Pre-chorus 2]
[D]That she had grown so dis[Em]tant
And that her love had [C]shifted
I wish she felt the same

[Chorus 2]
Don't [G]tell me that it's over,
the book of you and I
[D]Now you've [Em]scribbled out my name
And you've erased my favorite lines
There [C]were so many chapters
that we never got to write
[G]Like cer[Am]eal for dinner
and [D]staying up all night
I re[G]member where we started
I remember how you looked
But [D]now I'm [Em]missing bits and pieces
from the pages that you took
You [C]didn't gave a reason,
I'll forever wonder why
[G]We nev[Am]er got to finish
the [D]book of you and I

[Bridge 1]
[G]Don't tell me
Tell me that you're leav[D]ing me
[Em]My belly hurts and my heart
is hardly [C]beating right
I hate to beg, but [G]I'll try [Am]one last t[D]ime

[Chorus 3]
Don't [G]tell me that it's over,
the book of you and I
[D]Now you've [Em]scribbled out my name
And you've erased my favorite lines
There [C]were so many chapters
that we never got to write
[G]Like cer[Am]eal for dinner
and [D]staying up all night
I re[G]member where we started
I remember how you looked
But [D]now I'm [Em]missing bits and pieces
from the pages that you took
You [C]didn't gave a reason,
I'll forever wonder why
[G]We nev[Am]er got to finish
the [D]book of you and [G]I
