White Houses Tabulatur von Vanessa Carlton

Verse 1:
 C
 Crashed on the floor when I moved in 
 This little bungalow with some strange new friends
        C/B
 (Stay) up too late, and I'm too thin 
 We promise each other it's 'til the end
             Am
 (Now we're) spinning empty bottles, it's the five of us 
 With pretty eyed-boys girls die to trust
     G
 (I) can't resist the day--no, I can't resist the day...

    Verse 2:
 C
 Jenny screams out and it's no pose
 'Cause when she dances she goes and goes
 C/B
 Beer through the nose on an inside joke 
 I'm so excited, I haven't spoken
       Am
 (And) she's so pretty, and she's so sure
 Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her
 G 
 Summer's all in bloom 
 Summer's ending soon...

    CHORUS:

            F             Am          G     F
 (It's al)right, and it's nice not to be so alone
       Am   G            F 
 But I hold on to your secrets in 
 C     Am  G   
 White hou-ses 

    Verse 3:
C
 Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
 I come undone at the things he said
       C/B
 (And) he's so funny in his bright red shirt
 We were all in love, and we all got hurt
     Am
 (I) sneak into his car's cracked leather seat
 The smell of gasoline in the summer heat,
              G
 (Boy, we're) going way too fast
 It's all too sweet to last...

    CHORUS 2:
            F          Am    G           F
 (It's al)right, and I put myself in his hands
       Am   G           F 
 But I hold on to his secrets in 
 C     Am  G
 White hou-ses
 F        Am          G           F
 Love, or something ignites in my veins
       Am       G      F 
 And I pray it never fades, in 
 C     Am  G
 White hou-ses  

    Bridge:

F   C      Am      G        F
 My  first   time,  hard to explain
            C       Am       G            F
 Rush of blood, oh,   and a little bit of pain
         C        Am           G              F
 On a cloudy day,   it's more common than you think
      C   Am      G           C 
 He's  my   first  mistake...

    Verse 4:
C
 Maybe you were all faster than me
 We gave each other up so easily
         C/B
 (These) silly little wounds will never mend
 I feel so far from where I've been...

    CHORUS 3:
           F       Am          G         F
 (So I) go,  and I will not be back here again
     Am          G       F 
 I'm gone as the day is fading, on 
 C     Am  G
 White hou-ses
     F              Am       G          F
 (I) lied, wrote my injuries all the in dust
       Am             G        F 
 In my heart it's the five of us, in
 C     Am  G
 White hou-ses 
       F          Am       G
 (And) you, maybe you'll remember me
F       Am      G         F 
 What I gave is yours to keep, in
 C     Am  G    F 
 White hou-ses,     in
 C     Am  G    F 
 White hou-ses,     in
 C     Am  G     C
 White hou-ses...
