August chords by Taylor Swift (Ver. 3)

Guitar chords with lyrics


Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
E    Amaj7         F#m7
Salt air, and the rust on your door
        F#m
I never needed anything more
E    Amaj7    F#m7
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
       F#m
"Never have I ever  before"

Chorus:
  E
But I can see us lost in the memory
Amaj7                F#m7
August slipped away into a moment in time
          B
'Cause it was never mine
  E
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
Amaj7                F#m7
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
           B
'Cause you were never mine

Verse 2:
E    Amaj7      F#m7
Your back beneath the sun
        F#m
Wishin' I could write my name on it
E      Amaj7        F#m7
Will you call when you're back at school?
      F#m
I remember thinkin' I had you

Chorus:
  E
But I can see us lost in the memory
Amaj7                F#m7
August slipped away into a moment in time
          B
'Cause it was never mine
  E
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
Amaj7                F#m7
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
           B
'Cause you were never mine

E Amaj7 F#m B

Bridge:
E                    Amaj7
Back when we were still changin' for the better
       F#m
Wanting was enough
        B
For me, it was enough
        E
To live for the hope of it all
            Amaj7
Canceled plans just in case you'd call
               F#m
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
            B
So much for summer love and saying "us"
          E      Amaj7
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
          F#m  B
You weren't mine to lose, oh

Chorus:
  E
But I can see us lost in the memory
Amaj7                F#m7
August slipped away into a moment in time
          B
'Cause it was never mine
  E
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
Amaj7                F#m7
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
           B
'Cause you were never mine

Outro:
E           Amaj7
'Cause you were never mine
   F#m
Never mine
  B
But do you remember?
        E
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
     Amaj7
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
F#m                          B
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
          E
"Meet me behind the mall"
      E
(Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
     Amaj7
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
F#m                          B
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
          E
"Meet me behind the mall")
     E
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
     Amaj7
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
F#m                          B
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all)
          E      Amaj7
For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
F#m               B        E Amaj7 F#m B (6x)
(For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all)
