August Ukulele chords by Taylor Swift

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:

 G   C           Am
Salt air, and the rust on your door
        D
I never needed anything more
G    C       Am
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
        D
"Never have I ever before"


Chorus:
  G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                  Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
          D
'Cause it was never mine
  G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                 Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
           D
'Cause you were never mine

Verse 2:
G    C      Am
Your back beneath the sun
        D
Wishin' I could write my name on it
G      C          Am
Will you call when you're back at school?
      D
I remember thinkin' I had you


Chorus:
  G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                  Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
        D
'Cause it was never mine
  G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                 Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
         D
'Cause you were never mine

G C Am D


Bridge:
G                    C
Back when we were still changin' for the better
      Am
Wanting was enough
        D
For me, it was enough
        G
To live for the hope of it all
            C
Canceled plans just in case you'd call
                Am
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
            D
So much for summer love and saying "us"
          G      C
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
           Am  D
You weren't mine to lose, no


Chorus:
  G
But I can see us lost in the memory
C                  Am
August slipped away into a moment in time
          D
'Cause it was never mine
  G
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
C                  Am
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
           D
'Cause you were never mine


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