Intro: D
D
Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn't like it when I wore high heels
G
But I do
D
Turn the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song
G D
But I do I do
D
Walked in expecting you'd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wave
G
I walk to you
D
You pull my chair out and help me in
And you don't know how nice that is
G
But I do
G
And you throw your head back laughing
A
Like a little kid
Bm
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
D
He never did
G
I've been spending the last 8 months
A
Thinking all love ever does
D A Bm
Is break and burn and end
G A
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
D
I watched it begin again
D
You said you never met one girl who
Had as many James Taylor records as you
G
But I do
D
We tell stories and you don't know why
I'm coming off a little shy
G
But I do
G
And you throw your head back laughing
A
Like a little kid
Bm
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
D
He never did
G
I've been spending the last 8 months
A
Thinking all love ever does
D A Bm
Is break and burn and end
G A
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
D G A
I watched it begin again
G A
And we walked down the block to my car
And I almost brought him up
G A
But you start to talk about the movies
G
That your family watches every single Christmas
D
And I want to talk about that
G
And for the first time
What's past is past
G
And you throw your head back laughing
A
Like a little kid
Bm
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
D
He never did
G
I've been spending the last 8 months
A
Thinking all love ever does
D A Bm
Is break and burn and end
G A
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
D A Bm
I watched it begin again
G A
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again
Any particular reason for the use of the capo?
Hey Forgottenwords, there's no particular reason, it's just that out of the two ways I knew to play this song (no capo / capo on the 5th fret), I happened to prefer the one with a capo on the 5th fret, so I decided to tab it this way. But as I said in my tab, you dont have to use a capo if you don't want to, you can simply replace the chords by G, C (or Cadd9), D & Em and play without a capo, it sounds pretty much the same. In my opinion both ways are fine, so it's really a matter of preference :)
