I couldn't find this anywhere, so this is how I turned out playing the song.

The song is in 3/4 time, so the chord timings can be a bit tricky to match

the lyrics and vary by preference.

This is the C tuning, playing it with Capo 2 matches the original.

[Verse 1]
G Em
I'll always treasure the naïvety
C G
Of the past we've shared.
Em C
Our bodies grew much faster than our minds,
D G
But together we got good at stopping time.
G Em
My teen angst drove me to hurt myself,
C G
And I made you watch;
Em C
Oh, the pain I must have caused,
D G
But by staying around you saved my life (saved my life).

[Chorus 1]
C Em D
We were never meant to be lovers (ahh),
G Em
Just fellow late bloomers,
D G Em
Who blossomed apart (ahh).
D G
Who blossomed apart.

[Verse 2]
G
Watching my parents
Em
Made me look for something destructive,
C G
And there you were
Em C
With all the characteristics of my mom;
D G
Familiarity of home.
G Em
The geographic gap led to forced adulthood,
C G
And your rage exposed.
Em D
I'm glad we left things when we did;
G
I doubt I'd survive another bloody nose (bloody nose).

[Chorus 2]
