[Verse]
B Bmaj7
Followed you down to the beach tonight
G#m G#sus2
Wearing two coats but nothing besides
B Bmaj7
Forget that we're away from home
G#m G#sus2 G#m
Pretend we've got a beach of our own
[Chorus]
E
Always before but never again
F#
In the tall white grass where we ran and slept
G#m
I lost my head but the ideas came
C#m
Sweating out words like a fevered game
E
And now that seems like it was lost in time
F#
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]

[Verse]
B Bmaj7
Summer's so long and it's running away
G#m G#sus2
I lost my chain in the river that day
B Bmaj7
Watched that fire in the silent dark
G#m G#sus2 G#m
And i found you crying in the back of your car
[Chorus]
E
In the small hours while the embers glowed
F#
And the light showed drops on your blanket folds
G#m
I let you rest from your tired life
C#m
Carving that soil with your daddy's knife
E
And now it seems it was lost in time
F#
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]
