Sara Kays - Backseat Rider

Capo 7th fret

[Verse 1]
G Gmaj7
You lived down the block
C
We met for the first time, at the bus stop
G Gmaj7
We sat side-by-side
C
Third seat from the back, we talked the whole ride

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em C
Six years later, you bought your first car
G D/F#
And you told me to wait outside
Em C
And you pulled up and somebody else
G D/F#
Was sitting in the passenger side

[Chorus 1]
Em C
So I sat in the backseat, it didn’t bother me
G D/F#
But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
Em C
While you talked of movies I’ve nеver seen
G D/F#
I realized that’s how wе used to be
Em C
But now my best friend is the driver
G D/F#
And I’m the backseat rider

[Verse 2]
G Gmaj7
Maybe it’s my fault
C
Spent summer break away, and forgot to call
G Gmaj7
But maybe you forgot
C
Around this time last summer, we sat in the parking lot

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em C
And you told me when you got your first car
G D/F#
That you and I would go for a drive
Em C
But now we’re here and somebody else
G D/F#
Is sitting in the passenger side

[Chorus 2]
Em C
So I sat in the backseat, it didn’t bother me
G D/F#
But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
Em C
While you talked of movies I’ve nеver seen
G D/F#
I realized that’s how wе used to be
Em C
But now my best friend is the driver
G D/F#
And I’m the backseat rider

[Bridge]
Em C G D/F#
I’ll give you back the clothes that you used to borrow
Em C G D/F#
You dropped me off at home, said you’ll see me tomorrow

[Chorus 3]
Em C
So I sat in the backseat, it didn’t bother me
G D/F#
But after five weeks of sitting in silence behind her
Em C
While you talked of movies I’ve nеver seen
G D/F#
I realized that’s how wе used to be
Em C
But now my best friend is the driver
G D/F#
And I’m the backseat rider

[Outro]
Em C G D/F#
I’ll give you back the clothes that you used to borrow
Em C G D/F#
You dropped me off at home, said you’ll see me tomorrow
Em C G D/F#
Hmmmmmm, hmm-hmmm hmmm
