[Verse]

D
I wanna call you and 

tell you come over
G              D
 Get drunk and tell you
E                     A   D
What I think when I’m sober
D
Bring up a memory
D
You forgot you remember
G       D  Em
 June 2019
             A
Naked by the river
 
 
[Chorus]

Gmaj7
Don’t hang up
                      D
Give me a second to explain myself
                              Gmaj7
I learned my lesson through a dive bar hill
                       D
Just give me a second, baby
          Gmaj7
You don’t owe me shit
                                 D
But you know my secrets and it’s 3 a.m.
                               
And I know you’re sleepin’ but 
Gmaj7
you’re still all that I got
      A
And I know I blew my first shot
                          D       G  D
But could you give me a second?
 
 
[Verse]

D
Don’t know what you have
D
Till it slips through your fingers
G                D      Em
 But I knew what we had
                   A
So where does that leave us
       D
I said things I said 

I didn’t mean like 

I took it all back
D
I was losing you right in front of me
D
But till you packed your bags
           Gmaj7
Girl I was blinded by the good times
        D
And the way I made you laugh
           Em7
And I hope I can change your mind
      D                  A
Cause I can’t change the past, baby
 
 
[Chorus]

Gmaj7
Don’t hang up
                      D
Give me a second to explain myself
                              Gmaj7
I learned my lesson through a dive bar hill
                       D
Just give me a second, baby
          Gmaj7
You don’t owe me shit
                       
But you know my secrets 
         D
and it’s 3 a.m.
                          
And I know you’re sleepin’ 
    Gmaj7
but you’re still all that I got
      A
And I know I blew my first shot
                          Gmaj7
But could you give me a second?
  D
Yeah
                      Gmaj7    D
Could you give me a second
 
 
[Outro]

              Gmaj7
No, you don’t hold me shit
                          
But you know my secret’s in 
     D
it’s 3 a.m.
D
And I know you’re sleeping but
Gmaj7
You’re still all that I got
      A
And I know I blew my first shot
                          D
But could you give me a second?
                      Gmaj7    D
Could you give me a second?
