Afterglow - Verse:
G
I blew things out of proportion, now you're blue
C
Put you in jail for something you didn‘t do
G
I pinned your hands behind your back, oh
C

Thought I had reason to attack, but no

Afterglow - Pre-Chorus:
G
Fighting with a true love is boxing with no gloves
C
Chemistry 'til it blows up, 'til there’s no us
D              Em
Why'd I have to break what I love so much?
D           C
It's on your face, and I'm to blame, I need to say

Afterglow - Chorus:
G       D     Am
Hey, it's all me, in my head
C             G
I'm the one who burned us down
     D     Am
But it's not what I meant
C
Sorry that I hurt you
G                     D
I don't wanna do, I don’t wanna do this to you (Ooh)
Am                       C
I don’t wanna lose, I don't wanna lose this with you (Ooh)
        G       D       Am
I need to say, hey, it’s all me, just don't go

Meet me in the afterglow

 Our secret moments in a crowded room

 Carve your name into my bedpost

G
Tell me that you're still mine
D
Tell me that we'll be just fine
Am
Even when I lose my mind, I need to say
G
Tell me that it's not my fault
D
Tell me that I'm all you want
C             D
Even when I break your heart  but

Dress - Bridge:
C                Em
Flashback when you met me, your buzzcut and my hair bleached

Even in my worst times, you could see the best of me
C              Em
Flashback to my mistakes, my rebounds, my earthquakes
D            D
Even in my worst lies, you saw the truth in me

   C              Em
And I woke up just in time, now I wake up by your side
D   G        G/F#
  My one and only, my lifeline

I woke up just in time, now I wake up by your side

My hands are shaking, can't explain this, ha, ha, ha, ha
