[Verse]
G Gmaj7
Followed you down to the beach tonight
Em Esus2
Wearing two coats but nothing besides
G Gmaj7
Forget that we're away from home
Em Esus2 Em
Pretend we've got a beach of our own
[Chorus]
C
Always before but never again
D
In the tall white grass where we ran and slept
Em
I lost my head but the ideas came
Am
Sweating out words like a fevered game
C
And now that seems like it was lost in time
D
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]

[Verse]
G Gmaj7
Summer's so long and it's running away
Em Esus2
I lost my chain in the river that day
G Gmaj7
Watched that fire in the silent dark
Em Esus2 Em
And i found you crying in the back of your car
[Chorus]
C
In the small hours while the embers glowed
D
And the light showed drops on your blanket folds
Em
I let you rest from your tired life
Am
Carving that soil with your daddy's knife
C
And now it seems it was lost in time
D
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]
