[intro]
Em C Am C
You, how did you get so wise, I take the advice I find in your eyes
Em C Am C
Me, I've been waiting outside, most of my life, oh like a rare B-side
Em Bm Am Bm
I'm just making you mixtapes with homemade covers, analog to show we're lovers
Em Bm Am Bm
And here under the jacket folds inside, I've taped my heart for you to find...
Em C Am C
To find the perfect way, which album to say, I la la la love you
Em C Am C
With this plastic cassette, it's not finished yet, but it's gonna tell you slowly
Em Bm Am Bm
I'm just making you mixtapes with homemade covers, strings and drawings show we're lovers
Em Bm Am Bm
When you're driving around in the summertime, to hear again, just press rewind, rewind...
Em C Am C Em C Am Cmaj7
[instrumental]
Em C Am C
Rewind, it comes to an end, turns over again, another a thousand times
Em C Am C
Me, I'll be the same, no I never change, I'm like a rare B-side
Em Bm Am Bm
I'll be making you mixtapes with homemade covers, analog to show we're lovers
Em Bm Am Bm
So much rock 'n' roll love in a plastic case, play it loud then see my face
Em Bm Am Bm
I'm just making you mixtapes with homemade covers; Mazzy Star, Donovan's "Colours"
Em Bm Am Bm
Just an audio love letter, painted blue, I spent all day making for you, for you...
Em C Am C Em C Am Cmaj7 Em.
For you Mmmmmm
