Tip: Keep the strumming very soft and delicate throughout the verses. Let each chord breathe before transitioning. The emotion comes from restraint, not volume.

Full Song
Verse 1
C G
I still remember third of December
Am F
Me in your sweater, you said it looked better
C G Am
On me than it did you, only if you knew
F
How much I liked you, but I watch your eyes
Chorus
C G Am
Why would you ever kiss me? I’m not even half as pretty
F C
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
G Am F
But you like her better, wish I were Heather
Verse 2
C G
Watch as she stands with her holding your hand
Am F
Put your arm ’round her shoulder, now I’m getting colder
C G Am
But how could I hate her, she’s such an angel
F
But then again, kinda wish she were dead
