Verse 1:
G6G6
 I got my driver’s license last week
              E minor 7Em7
Just like we always talked about

'Cause you were so excited for me
              Cadd2Cadd2
To finally drive up to your house

But today I drove through the suburbs
              G6G6
Crying 'cause you weren't around


Verse 2:
G6G6
 And you're probably with that blonde girl

Who always made me doubt
E minor 7Em7
 She's so much older than me

She's everything I'm insecure about
    Cadd2Cadd2
But, today I drove through the suburbs
                  G6G6
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?


Chorus:
  Cadd2Cadd2
And I know we weren't perfect
                  G6G6
but I've never felt this way for no one
  Cadd2Cadd2
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay
     G6G6
now that I'm gone
   E minor 7Em7     D/F#D/F#      G5G5      B minorBm  Csus2Csus2
Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
    Csus2Csus2         Dsus4Dsus4        G5G5
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
