cardigan by Taylor Swift

Capo 1

VERSE 1:
Em​ ​A
Vintage tee, brand new phone
​G
High heels on cobblestones
​A
When you are young they assume you know nothing
Em A G
Sequined smile, black lipstick, sensual politics
A
When you are young, they assume you know nothing

PRE-CHORUS:
D A
But I knew you, dancin' in your Levi's

Drunk under a streetlight, I


G A
I knew you, hand under my sweatshirt

Baby, kiss it better, I

CHORUS 1:
Em A
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan

Under someone's bed


G A
You put me on and said I was your favorite

VERSE 2:
Em A
A friend to all is a friend to none
G
Chase two girls, lose the one
​A
When you are young, they assume you know nothing

PRE-CHORUS:
D
But I knew you
A
Playing hide-and-seek and

Giving me your weekends, I


G
I knew you
A
Your heartbeat on the High Line

Once in twenty lifetimes, I

CHORUS 2:
G Bm
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan

Under someone's bed


D G
You put me on and said I was your favorite

BREAK:
G Bm
A G

VERSE 3:
G
To kiss in cars, in downtown bars
Bm
Was all I needed
A
You drew stars around my scars
G
But now I'm bleedin'
D
'Cause I knew you
A
Steppin' on the last train

Marked me like a bloodstain, I


G
I knew you
A
Tried to change the ending

Peter losin' Wendy, I


D
I knew you
A
Leavin' like a father, runnin' like water, I
G A
When you are young, they assume you know nothing

BRIDGE:
D
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
A
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
G
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
A
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
D
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
A
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
​G
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
A
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
Em
And I knew you'd come back to me
A
And you'd come back to me
G
And you'd come back to me
A
And you'd come back

CHORUS 3:
G Bm
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan

Under someone's bed


D G
You put me on and said I was your favorite
