[Intro]
 
C E C 
E C E
 
          C       G/B
Can we be honest?
                 Am7
It's not what we wanted
                        Fmaj7   Em7   Dm7
You ruined August for me
 
 
[Verse]

C
Sunrise is jealous 

of your hazel eyes
    Am7
The way that you look under 

the pale moonlight
Fmaj7            Em7
Drivin' your car, sun on your skin
Dm7
You are the view I'm takin' in
C                       
Dreadin' the moment that  
  E/G#
we said goodnight
   Am7
If we stayed right here, 

we could've gotten it right
Fmaj7         
God only knows 
       Em7
what it could've been
              Dm7
Said we would talk, 

but we never did
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

            C             G/B
You know my favorite silhouette
                Am7
Was you in your little summer dress
        Fmaj7           Em7    
We were good, so f*cking good 
               Dm7
and then it was over
             C               C/E
I don't miss you, just who we were
                 Am7
You're probably saying something similar
      Fmaj7        Em7       
I was on my way downtown and 
             Dm7
I knew it was over
 
 
[Chorus]

          C
Can we be honest?
                 Am7
It's not what we wanted
                        Fmaj7   Em7
You ruined August for me
      Dm7
For me
          C      G/B
Can we be honest?
          Am7
Summer is haunted
                        Fmaj7   Em7
You ruined August for me
      Dm7
For me
 
 
[Verse]

     E
Girl nah
  E/G#                          Am7
I don't dream I kiss your lips, soft
                                Fmaj7
Still, I can't see a picture of us
     Em7                 
Your words still haunt me 
 Dm7
(Your words still haunt me)
                    C
But I still read it all
          G/B                 Am7
If you're happy, I don't wanna know
                         
If you see me, go on like 
      Fmaj7
we're strangers again
 Em7                      Dm7
How does it feel? Only a dream, 

it wasn't real
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

            C             G/B
You know my favorite silhouette
                Am7
Was you in your little summer dress
        Fmaj7           Em7       
We were good, so f*cking good and 
           Dm7
then it was over
             C     
I don't miss you, 
           G/B
just who we were
                 Am7
You're probably saying something similar
      Fmaj7        Em7       
I was on my way downtown and 
             Dm7
I knew it was over
 
 
[Chorus]

          C       G/B
Can we be honest?
                 Am7
It's not what we wanted
                        Fmaj7   Em7       Dm7
You ruined August for me
          C      G/B
Can we be honest?
          Am7
Summer is haunted
                        Fmaj7   Em7
You ruined August for me
      Dm7
For me
