Taking Back Sunday - I Am Fred Astaire

[Intro]
D5

[Verse 1]
D5
I’m under the assumption that
D5 C5
I’m gonna be the one that’s leaving you
C5
Tonight
C5
Oh, tonight
D5
Well, I flipped every switch
D5
That I could find on my way out
C5
Just to upset you more (just to keep you busy)
A5 D5
Just to make you angry (just because you were right)
D5
Just because you were

[Chorus]
D5
All tired
D5
Scream, safe haven
D5
Let’s get this out and on the table

[Verse 2]
D5
Fast forward to, say, four o’ clock
D5
I’m keeping time
D5
I’m holdin’
D5 C5
We’re always holdin’ (always holdin)
D5
We’re always holdin, holding out
D5
And that’s what got us here in the first place
C5
You should have never come here alone
A5
(You should have never bothered at all), bothered at all

[Chorus]
D5
Scream older and wiser
D5
Still filled with resentment
A5 C5
We get it, we get it
G5
(I haven’t been happier since)
D5
Older and wiser
A5
Still filled with resentment
C5
We get it, we get it
G5 D5
(I haven’t been happier, no, I haven’t been happy, no, not since)

[Verse 3]
D5
Five o’ clock the floor caught fire with footsteps (my footsteps)
C5
And spread like a disease to the door
C5
I’m stuttering through it but I hear it
C5
Well, I-I I hear it’s good t-t-to stick to what you know
D5
And you know the whole lot of this
D5
It all could have been avoided
C5
When you were court side for this nightmare
C5
Well since then I got myself
A5
Come and listen

[Chorus]
D5
Older and wiser
A5
Still filled with resentment
C5
We get it, we get it
G5
(I haven’t been happier since)
D5
Older and wiser
A5
Still filled with resentment
C5
We get it, we get it
G5 D5 A5 C5 G5
(I haven’t been happier, no, I haven’t been happier, not since)

[Outro]
D5 A5
Well, we used to get so much more
A5
(I used to, I used to too)
C5 G5
It used to take so much more
G5
(I used to, I used to, I used to too)
