Simplified version of the song made for acoustic solo guitar.
TUNING: Standard
Capo: Where ever you can sing it, I use fret 2.
I'm not sure if the names of the A chords are correct, but here they are tabbed out.

(add9): 000200

(repeat once)
(repeat once)
[Verse1:] (repeat chord progression throughout verses, listen to the song for the
correct strumming, it helps a lot)
Please take me by the hand
It's so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed
I won't turn out the light
Just don't forget to think about me
And I won't forget you
I'll write you once a week she said
[Riff]
Why does it feel the same
To fall in love or break it off
And if young love is just a game
Then I must have missed the kick off
Don't depend on me to ever follow through on anything
But I'd go through hell for you and
[Chorus:] (repeat these chords for each chorus)
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me
[Riff] (x2)
I'll think about the times
She kissed me after class
And she put up with my friends
I acted like an ass
I'd ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer
Is my picture still hanging in her locker?
