Intro
B
[Verse 1]
B
See the lizard and the firefly
G#m
and the smoke blow through the trees
E
on a warm cicada night
F#
the sea was empty bottle green
B
and you were staring at the fire as it shouldered to ash
G#m
had a vision of a love flashing from the past
E F#
we were together I said we could be forever woah oh oh
[Chorus]
E F#
As the days go by I’m getting older
B G#m
see the albatross over your shoulder
E F#
and I’m wiser than I was
B
but the nights are just a little bit colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
G#m
colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
E F#
as I long for yesterday, the feelings wash away woah oh oh
[Verse 2]
B
Heading north up to SummerLand
G#m
flying down Jalama ’til our wheels hit the sand
E
and we’re together
F#
you said we could be forever woah oh oh
[Chorus]
E F#
As the days go by I’m getting older
B G#m
see the albatross over your shoulder
E F#
and I’m wiser than I was
B
but the nights are just a little bit colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
G#m
colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
E F#
as I long for yesterday, the feelings wash away woah oh oh
[Outro]
E F#
Uuuh Uh-uh-uuh
B
Oh
B
lonely without you (fades)
