[Verse 1]
G G
Well it all began in the back of her car
D D Em Em C C
I was just 16 but I fell so hard
G G
Well the years went by and she held my heart
D D Em Em C C
But her love ran dry and we fell apart


[Pre-Chorus]
Am Am D D
I felt her growing distant
Am Am
I knew her love was shifting
D D
And all that I could say was


[Chorus]
G G
Don't tell me that it's over
D D
The book of you & I
Em Em
Now you've scribbled out my name

And you've erased my favorite lines
Am Am
There were so many chapters that we never got to write
D D
Like cereal for dinner and staying up all night
G G
I remember where we started
D D
I remember how you looked
Em Em
But now I'm missing bits and pieces
C C
From the pages that you took
Am Am
You didn't give a reason and I'll forever wonder why
D D
We never got to finish the book of you and I


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


[Pre-Chorus]
Am Am D D
That she had grown so distant
Am Am
And that her love had shifted
D D
I wish she felt the same


[Chorus]
G G
Don't tell me that it's over

The book of you & I
D D Em Em
Now you've scribbled out my name
C C
And you've erased my favorite lines
Am Am
There were so many chapters that we never got to write
D D
Like cereal for dinner and staying up all night
G G
I remember where we started

I remember how you looked
D D Em Em
But now I'm missing bits and pieces
C C
From the pages that you took
Am Am
You never gave a reason and I'll forever wonder why
D D
We never got to finish the book of you and I


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


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