Intro: C   G   Em  D

C                        G
  When the morning came we
                           Em
Were cleaning incense off your vinyl shelf
           D                      C
'Cause we lost track of time again
                     G
Laughing with my feet in your lap
     Em            D
Like you were my closest friend
C                         G
 How'd we end up on the floor, anyway?
       Em                                      D
You say, "Your roommate's cheap-ass screw top Rosé"
          C          G         D
That's how I see you everyday now

Chorus:
    C        G
And I chose you
    Em         D
The one I was dancing with
        C         G
In New York, no shoes
       Em          D
Looked up at the sky, and it was
     C
The burgundy on my T-shirt
            G
When you splashed your wine onto me
              Em
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
     D
So scarlet, it was
     C
The mark you saw on my collarbone
     G
The rust that grew between telephones
     Em
The lips I used to call "home"
     D                 C   G   Em  D
So scarlet, it was maroon

C
  When the silence came we
 G                          Em
Were shaking, blind and hazy
                          D
How the hell did we lose sight of us again?
C                       G
 Sobbing with your head in your hands
        Em              D
Ain't that the way shit always ends?
C                           G                  Em
  You were standing hollow-eyed in the hallway
                                 D
Carnations you had thought were roses, that's us
C             G           Em
  I feel you, no matter what
     D
The rubies that I gave up

Chorus:
    C       G
And I lost you
    Em         D
The one I was dancing with
        C         G
In New York, no shoes
       Em          D
Looked up at the sky and it was (Maroon)
     C
The burgundy on my t-shirt
            G
When you splashed your wine into me
              Em
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
     D
So scarlet, it was (Maroon)
     C
The mark they saw on my collarbone
     G
The rust that grew between telephones
     Em
The lips I used to call home
     D
So scarlet, it was maroon

  C                    G
Awake, with your memory over me
         Em                 D
That's a real lusting legacy, legacy
  C                   G
Awake with your memory over me
         Em                 D
That's a real lusting legacy to leave

Chorus:
     C
The burgundy on my t-shirt
            G
When you splashed your wine into me
              Em
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks
     D
So scarlet, it was maroon
     C
The mark they saw on my collarbone
     G
The rust that grew between telephones
     Em
The lips I used to call home
     D                 C   G   Em   D
So scarlet, it was maroon
          C   G   Em   D
It was maroon
It was maroon
