G The written word was just enough, Em D To keep us going when the world would get a little tough. G And, I held you up when winter came, Em D And no one said a thing when everything became so very Em G Em D Complicated complicated complicated they said. G The spring held nothing but surprise, Em D And all that we ignored was open to our eyes. G And I said, then maybe we should settle down, Em D Find a cottage or a tunnel underground And we'll be Em G Em D Complicated complicated complicated they said we would be, Em G Em D Complicated complicated complicated they said. Em G Ohhhhhhhohhhhhh, I should've known, Em D Ohhhhhhhohhhhhh, we'll have to go, Em G Back to the that we were Em Before we were us, D Before I was me, Em G Before we were, happier than I've ever been, Em D Than you'll ever see, Em G 'Cause that's the way it has to be, Em D The way it has to be. G We felt the summer on our skin, Em D We curled up in the warmth and let each other in. G And I asked, "Have you felt this way before..." Em D You turned to me said "No I'll be forever yours..." And we'll be... Em G Em D Complicated complicated complicated they said we would be, Em G Em D Complicated complicated complicated they said. Em G Ohhhhhhhohhhhhh, I should've known, Em D And I said ohhhhhhhohh, we'll have to go, Em G Back to the that we were Em Before we were us, D Before I was me, Em G Before we were, happier than I've ever been, Em D Than you'll ever see, 'Cause that's the way it has to... Em G I would push and you would pull away from me my heart would bleed Em D And I'd say things I didn't mean to try and get you back to me.

Em G So we'll go back, to the that we were, Em Before we were us, D Before I was me, Em G Before we were, happier than I've ever been, Em D Than you'll ever see, 'Cause that's the way it has to... Em G Back to the way that we were, Em Before we were us, D Before I was me, Em G Before we were happier than I've ever been, Em D Than you'll ever see, Em G 'Cause that's the way it has to be. Em D That's the way it has to be. G The way it has to be.
