The Story Of Us - Taylor Swift

Intro: A Bm Dsus2 G (x2)

D                   A                          G

I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us

                                        D

How we met and the sparks flew instantly

             A                           G       

People would say, "They're the lucky ones"

D                 A                        G

I used to know my place was a spot next to you

                                            D

Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat

                           A                       G

'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on

A                  Bm

Oh, a simple complication

          D               Asus4

Miscommunications lead to fall out

G

So many things that I wish you knew

A

So many walls up I can't break through

Chorus:

D                Asus4              Em7

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room

              G       D

And we're not speaking

                 Asus4              Em7                              

And I'm dying to know is it killing you

                  G                

Like it's killing me?

Bm                   A                    D                 

I don't know what to say since a twist of fate

                  G                                       

When it all broke down

        Bm                  A                  G                                                

And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now-  Next chapter

                          

A  Bm  Dsus2  G

D                    A                      

How'd we end up this way?

                 G             

See me nervously pulling at my clothes

                       D

And trying to look busy

                      A               G

And you're doing your best to avoid me

D                         A                          G

I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us

                                            D

How I was losing my mind when I saw you here

                  A                               G

But you held your pride like you should have held me

A                           Bm

Oh, we're scared to see the ending

           D                  Asus4

Why are we pretending this is nothing?

G

I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how

A                    

I've never heard silence quite this loud

Chorus:

D                Asus4              Em7

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room

              G       D

And we're not speaking

                 Asus4              Em7                              

And I'm dying to know is it killing you

                  G                

Like it's killing me?

Bm                   A                    D                 

I don't know what to say since a twist of fate

                  G                                      

When it all broke down

        Bm                  A                  G                                                

And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

A  Bm  Dsus2  G (x2)

Bridge:

D             G

This is looking like a contest

(G)                             

Of who can act like they care less

D                          A              G

But I liked it better when you were on my side

D                             G

The battle's in your hands now

(G)

But I would lay my armours down

   Bm              A                G

If you'd say you'd rather love than fight

G

So many things that you wish I knew

        A                  

But the story of us might be ending soon

D  

Now I'm standing alone

 Asus4 G        G

In a crowded room  and we're not speaking                   

        D        Asus4              Em7                              

And I'm dying to know is it killing you

                  G                

Like it's killing me?

Bm                   A                    D                 

I don't know what to say since a twist of fate

                  G                                      

When it all broke down

        Bm                                                      

And the story of us

        A                  G                D  Asus4

Looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, no-----ow

Em7              G       D

   And we're not speaking

                 Asus4              Em7                              

And I'm dying to know is it killing you

                  G                

Like it's killing me?

Bm                   A                    D                 

I don't know what to say since a twist of fate

                    G                                      

'Cause we're go-ing down

        Bm                  A                  G

And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

The End.
