[Verse]
C Cmaj7
Followed you down to the beach tonight
Am Asus2
Wearing two coats but nothing besides
C Cmaj7
Forget that we're away from home
Am Asus2 Am
Pretend we've got a beach of our own
[Chorus]
F
Always before but never again
G
In the tall white grass where we ran and slept
Am
I lost my head but the ideas came
Dm
Sweating out words like a fevered game
F
And now that seems like it was lost in time
G
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]

C Cmaj7
Summer's so long and it's running away
Am Asus2
I lost my chain in the river that day
C Cmaj7
Watched that fire in the silent dark
Am Asus2 Am
And i found you crying in the back of your car
[Chorus]
F
In the small hours while the embers glowed
G
And the light showed drops on your blanket folds
Am
I let you rest from your tired life
Dm
Carving that soil with your daddy's knife
F
And now it seems it was lost in time
G
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
