Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

C G

Pancakes for dinner, again

Am F

You say you don’t mind, I pretend

C G

That I know what I’m doing here

Am F

With you in the atmosphere

C G Am

And the dishes in the sink

F C

And the time to sit and think

G Am F C

About the way the light hits your face in the morning

Chorus

F C

And I could get used to this

G Am

A complicated bliss

F C

I’m learning how to miss

G Am F

The things I haven’t lost yet

F C

And I could get used to you

G Am

The simple things you do

F C

I’m folding into you

G Am F C

Like a sweater that I’ve always worn

Verse 2

C G

You’re humming a song, off-key

Am F

It sounds like a symphony

C G

To my overthinking brain

Am F

That’s finally letting go of the reign

C G Am

And the quiet is so loud

F C

But it’s a comfort now

G Am F C

And I don’t wanna be anywhere else in the morning

Chorus

F C

And I could get used to this

G Am

A complicated bliss

F C

I’m learning how to miss

G Am F

The things I haven’t lost yet

F C

And I could get used to you

G Am

The simple things you do

F C

I’m folding into you

G Am F C

Like a sweater that I’ve always worn

Bridge

Am F

Maybe this is all there is

C G

Maybe this is where it lives

Am F C

In the space between the words

G Am F C

And the sound of breaking fast

Am F

Maybe I could stay right here

C G

Maybe I could lose the fear

Am F C G Am F

That this good thing always has to end so fast

Chorus

F C

And I could get used to this

G Am

A complicated bliss

F C

I’m learning how to miss

G Am F

The things I haven’t lost yet

F C

And I could get used to you

G Am

The simple things you do

F C

I’m folding into you

G Am F C

Like a sweater that I’ve always worn

Outro

C G

Pancakes for dinner, again

Am

You say you don’t mind

F C

And I believe you this time

Practice tip: Practice the F to C transition, as it’s central to the song’s progression; try anchoring your index finger on the first string for both chords.
