[Intro]
D Dmaj7

[Verse]
D
I still freeze when I look at these
                                        Dmaj7      Gmaj7
Faded photographs from February last
                         F#
Twenty second or twenty third
Em                                    A
Shared some dumplings, whispered some words

Dmaj7
We had two, maybe three bucks saved
D                          Dmaj7                Gmaj7
Between us sat in blankets on the floor
                           F#
Used to wish for money in rain
    Em                              A        G
A west side apartment, paper plane

[Chorus]
D         A
Oooo oooh
                D         Dmaj7
Then you left in May
                D                                Gmaj7
Took the wrong long way back home
         F#
Wish I'd known
           Em  F#m G       C
That I had all I could want
                   Em
In our tiny apartment
            A                         D
Above the Chinese restaurant

[Verse]
Dmaj7
Street sounds blistered with neon lights
           D                                  Dmaj7        Gmaj7
Heard the neighbors snoring every other night
                             F#
Eating dumplings from next door
Em                                A
Finish them up, they'd give us some more

Dmaj7
Didn't realize we had it all
         D                              Dmaj7             Gmaj7
Even when the roof came caving in that fall
                         F#
Oh, I loved you more than you know
Em                            A
Covered in flakes of crystal white snow

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Outro]
D Dmaj7
