CAPO 4

Intro - C    F   Am  G F (2x)

Verse 1:
C                       F
When I was young I knew everything
     Am                  G     F
And she a punk who rarely ever took advice
        C                              F
Now I'm guilt stricken sobbing with my head on the floor
Am                   G     F
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no

Pre-Chorus:
Am   G     F
         I can't be held responsible
Am   G          F  
         'Cause she was touching her face
Am   G      F  
          I won't be held responsible
Am   G             F
       She fell in love in the first place

Chorus:
C                  F
For the life of me, I cannot remember
Am                        G       F                         C
  What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
                     F
For the life of me,  I cannot believe
     Am                 G    F
We'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen


Bridge - C    F    Am  G F

verse 2:
        C                      F
My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
    Am                 G        F
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
             C                               F
And now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
  Am                     G      F
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says...

Pre-Chorus:
Am   G     F
         I can't be held responsible
Am   G          F  
         'Cause she was touching her face
Am   G      F  
          I won't be held responsible
Am   G             F
       She fell in love in the first place

Chorus:
C                  F
For the life of me, I cannot remember
Am                        G       F                         C
  What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
                     F
For the life of me,  I cannot believe
     Am                 G    F
We'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen

Em F  C  G  (X4)

Verse 3:
C                                 F
 We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
         Am             G    F
We never talk of our lacking relationships
              C                               F
And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
   Am                    G       F
We fell through the ice, when we tried not to slip, we'd say it...

Pre-Chorus:
Am   G     F
         I can't be held responsible
Am   G          F  
         'Cause she was touching her face
Am   G      F  
          I won't be held responsible
Am   G             F
       She fell in love in the first place

Chorus:
C                  F
For the life of me, I cannot remember
Am                        G       F                         C
  What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
                     F
For the life of me,  I cannot believe
     Am                 G    F
We'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen

Chorus:
C                  F
For the life of me, I cannot remember
Am                        G       F                         C
  What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
                     F
For the life of me,  I cannot believe
     Am                 G    F
We'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen

C     F
     We were merely freshmen
Am  G  F                        
      We were merely freshmen

Outro - C   F   Am  G  F  (you can end on C)
