[Verse]
F# F#maj7
Followed you down to the beach tonight
D#m D#sus2
Wearing two coats but nothing besides
F# F#maj7
Forget that we're away from home
D#m D#sus2 D#m
Pretend we've got a beach of our own
[Chorus]
B
Always before but never again
C#
In the tall white grass where we ran and slept
D#m
I lost my head but the ideas came
G#m
Sweating out words like a fevered game
B
And now that seems like it was lost in time
C#
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]

[Verse]
F# F#maj7
Summer's so long and it's running away
D#m D#sus2
I lost my chain in the river that day
F# F#maj7
Watched that fire in the silent dark
D#m D#sus2 D#m
And i found you crying in the back of your car
[Chorus]
B
In the small hours while the embers glowed
C#
And the light showed drops on your blanket folds
D#m
I let you rest from your tired life
G#m
Carving that soil with your daddy's knife
B
And now it seems it was lost in time
C#
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
