Eb Eb
My life started when I went for jog
Eb Eb
And spotted you in the park
Eb Eb
Sitting with a dog
Eb Eb Ab Ab Eb Eb
So I stopped and asked, "can I pet your dog?"

Eb Eb
And so there we were, me and this golden retriever, basking in the abundance of sun Austin provides.
Eb Eb
And suddenly, you blurted out

G G Ab Ab
"This isn't my dog, actually
G G Ab Ab
It's my friend's dog, Sheila
G G Ab Ab
I'm taking care of her while he's away
G G Ab Ab Eb Eb
She's on a lot of medication"

Eb Eb
And I laughed, and you laughed
Eb Eb
Saying you didn't wanna be found out when you asked me to coffee
Eb Eb
That there was no dog
Ab Ab Eb Eb
I said yes and you said, "I'm Jase. What's your name?"

Eb Eb
And I heard the perfect opportunity
Eb Eb
To be someone else entirely
Eb Eb
Free from my history
Eb Eb
For one single cup of coffee
G G Ab Ab Eb Eb
I would be Natalie

Eb Eb
Obviously that's not how it went down.
Eb Eb
One cup of coffee turned into two bottles of wine,
Eb Eb
three desserts and staying up talking until four in the morning.
Eb Eb
Too late to backpedal. Too good not to keep going


[CHORUS]
Eb Eb Ab Ab
It felt like my life, but a better version
Eb Eb Db Db Ab Ab
With you in my life, I was a better person
Eb Eb
I heard music in the words you were saying
Ab Ab
Melodies with no band playing
Eb Eb
For the first time, I was in love
Ab Ab Eb Eb
And I loved who I was with you


[VERSE]
Eb Eb
All the mundane shit I used to hate
Eb Eb
Like recycling plastic and flossing every day
Eb Eb
Making breakfast, paying bills
Eb Eb
Watering the plants on our window sill
Ab Ab Eb Eb
Was invigorated with your sense of wonder

Eb Eb
Pillow talk, afternoon walks
Eb Eb
Holding hands in the parking lot of Home Depot
Eb Eb
Dealing with inevitable misfortunes that were barely manageable
Eb Eb Ab Ab Eb Eb
Like that time we accidentally hit a squirrel with your car

Eb Eb
That was an unfortunate anecdote
Eb Eb
Do you know what I mean?


[CHORUS]
Eb Eb Ab Ab
It felt like my life, but a better version
Eb Eb Ab Ab
With you in my life, I was a better person
Eb Eb
I heard music in the words you were saying
Eb Eb
Melodies with no band playing
Ab Ab Eb Eb
For the first time, I was in love
Ab Ab Eb Eb
And I loved who I was with you

Eb Eb
My parents finally tracked me down
Eb Eb
After years of jumping from town to town
G G Ab Ab Eb Eb
They found you and me

Eb Eb
Men in suits at our front door
Eb Eb
Asking you about Judith Ford
G G Ab Ab Eb Eb
And I knew, instantly

Ab Ab G G
They say before you die
Ab Ab G G
Your whole life flashes before your very eyes
Ab Ab
Well, it didn't the first time
Eb Eb Ab Ab
But this time I heard each and every lie

Ab Ab
I'd ever told you
G G Ab Ab
I tried to cling to the life I'd made together with you
G G
So I did the only thing I knew how to
Ab Ab
I denied who I was, because

Eb Eb Ab Ab
I wanted to keep my life
N.C
But the better version
Eb Eb F F Ab Ab
Natalie, your wife
N.C
She was a better person

Eb Eb
I memorized your voice
Eb Eb
And how you say goodbye
Ab Ab
But you never said goodbye
Ab Ab
You never said goodbye
Eb Eb Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7 Ab Ab
And I held on to our life
Eb Eb
And who I was with you
Eb Eb
Who I was with you
Eb Eb
Who I was with you
