[Verse]
F Fmaj7
Followed you down to the beach tonight
Dm Dsus2
Wearing two coats but nothing besides
F Fmaj7
Forget that we're away from home
Dm Dsus2 Dm
Pretend we've got a beach of our own
[Chorus]
A#
Always before but never again
C
In the tall white grass where we ran and slept
Dm
I lost my head but the ideas came
Gm
Sweating out words like a fevered game
A#
And now that seems like it was lost in time
C
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]

F Fmaj7
Summer's so long and it's running away
Dm Dsus2
I lost my chain in the river that day
F Fmaj7
Watched that fire in the silent dark
Dm Dsus2 Dm
And i found you crying in the back of your car
[Chorus]
A#
In the small hours while the embers glowed
C
And the light showed drops on your blanket folds
Dm
I let you rest from your tired life
Gm
Carving that soil with your daddy's knife
A#
And now it seems it was lost in time
C
But for those two years he was a friend of mine
[Interlude]
