Speak Now coming out October 25!

I love Taylor Swift! Here are the guitar chords and lyrics to her songs from her sophomore album Speak Now that have been released early.


"Mine"

Chords:
Verses and Chorus-Cadd9 G D Em
Prechorus and bridge- Em D Cadd9 G

Lyrics:
Verse 1- You were in college workin' part time waitin' tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk, with a fear of fallin'
Wonderin' why we bother with love
If it never lasts
Prechorus- I say, can you believe it?
Cause we're lyin' on a couch
The moment I can see it
Yes, yes
I can see it now
Chorus- Do you remember we were sittin' there by the water
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing
That's ever been mine
Verse 2- Flash forward and we're takin' on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes
Prechorus- But we got bills to pay
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take,
Yes, yes
This is what I thought about
Chorus (2)- Do you remember we were sittin' there by the water
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing
That's ever been mine
Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing
That's ever been mine
Uh oh oh
Bridge- And I remember that fight, two thirty a.m.
You said everything was slippin' right out of our hands
I ran out cryin' and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the good bye
Cause that's all I've ever known
But you took me by surprise
You said I'll never leave you alone
You said
Chorus(3)- I remember how we felt sittin' by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing
That's ever been mine
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing
That's ever been mine
Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
Yes, yes
I can see it now


"Speak Now"

Chords:
Verses and chorus: G D Am C
Prechorus and bridge: Am C G D

Lyrics:
Verse 1-I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
I sneak in and see your friends
And her snotty little family
All dressed in pastel and she
Is yelling at a bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room wearing a gown shaped like a pastry
Prechorus- This is
Surely not what you thought it would be
I
Lose myself in a daydream
Where I stand and say
Chorus- Don't say yes
Run away now
I'll meet you when you're out
Of the church at the back door
Don't wait, or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
Verse 2- Fond gestures are exchanged
And the organ starts to play a song that sounds like a death march
And I am hiding in the curtains
It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be
Prechorus- She
Floats down the aisle
Like a pageant queen
I
Know you wish it was me
You wish it was me
Don't ya?
Chorus(2)- Don't say yes
Run away now
I'll meet you when you're out Of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
Don't say yes
Run away now
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
Your time is running out
And they said speak now
Bridge- I hear the preacher say
Speak now or forever hold your peace
There's a silence
There's my last chance
I stand up with shaking hands
All eyes on me
Horrified looks from everyone in the room but
I'm only looking at you
Verse 3- I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion but you
Are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
Chorus(3)- So don't say yes
Run away now
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
They said speak now
You say, let's run away now
I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux at the back door
Baby I didn't say my vows
So glad you were around when they said speak now

"Sparks Fly"

Chords:
Verses, chorus and bridge: Am F C G
Prechorus: F G C G Am F G

Lyrics:
Verse 1- The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You say my name for the first time baby and I
Fall in love in an empty barn*
Prechorus- And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see what I was thinkin' of
Chorus- Drop everything now
Meet me in the pourin' rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes baby
As the lights go down
Somethin' that'll haunt me when you're not around
Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Verse 2- So reach out open handed
And lead me out to that floor
Don't need no paper lanterns
Take me down
Baby bring on the movie star
Prechorus- Cause my heart is beating fast and you
Are beautiful
I could wait patiently but
I really wish you would
Chorus ( The chorus is the same the whole way through so just sing that when you see chorus)
Bridge- Run my fingers through your hair and watch the lights go out
Put your beautiful eyes on me
Gonna strike this match tonight
Lead me up the staircase won't you whisper
Soft and slow
I'd love to hate it but you make it like a fireworks show
Chorus
Sparks fly oh baby smile
Sparks fly...



Hope you enjoy. The first two are currently available on iTunes but "Sparks Fly" won't be until the album is released.

* It has been debated whether "ballroom", "bar", or "barn" is used here. If you know for sure leave a comment please!
