[Verse 1]
B C#m A
d'you ever think about those summer days
C#m E B
My head was in your lap you had your legs crossed
E A C#m
playing with my hair it was blonder then
B C#m A
lyin on that dirty sidewalk
E A E
i forgot how terrible it feels to be alive
that day
B C#m G#m Amaj7 B
but now its late november you're off in college and you took your stupid face
[Chorus]
C#m
Why does life keep piling up

i do my best it's not enough
G#m G# E

i think about you in my bed at night
