Verse
C#m Bsus4
How the time passed away
Cadd9
All the trouble that we gave
C#m Bsus4 Cadd9
And all those days we spent out by the lake
C#m Bsus4
Has it all gone to waste
Cadd9
All the promises we made
C#m Bsus4 Cadd9
One by one they vanish just the same
[Chorus]
E Bsus4
Of all the things I still remember
C#m
Summer's never looked the same
Cadd9
The years go by and time just seems to fly
E
But the memories remain
Bsus4
In the middle of the September
C#m
We'd still play out in the rain
Cadd9
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Bsus4 Cadd9
Reflecting now on how things could've been
C#m Bsus4 Cadd9
It was worth it in the end
[Verse 2]
C#m Bsus4
Now it all seems so clear
Cadd9
There's nothing left to fear
C#m Bsus4 Cadd9
So we made our way by finding what was real
C#m Bsus4
Now the days are so long
Cadd9
That summer's moving on
C#m Bsus4 Cadd9
We reach for something that's already gone
[Chorus]
E Bsus4
Of all the things I still remember
C#m
Summer's never looked the same
Cadd9
The years go by and time just seems to fly
E
But the memories remain
Bsus4
In the middle of the September
C#m
We'd still play out in the rain
Cadd9
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Bsus4 Cadd9
Reflecting now on how things could've been
E Bsus4 C#m Cadd9 (strum down fast)
It was worth it in the end
[Bridge]
E Bsus4
We knew we had to leave this town
C#m
But we never knew when and we never knew how
Cadd9
We would end up here the way we are
E Bsus4
Yeah we knew we had to leave this town
C#m Cadd9
But we never knew when and we never knew how
[Chorus]
E Bsus4
Of all the things I still remember
C#m
Summer's never looked the same
Cadd9
The years go by and time just seems to fly
E
But the memories remain
Bsus4
In the middle of the September
C#m
We'd still play out in the rain
Cadd9
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Bsus4 Cadd9
Reflecting now on how things could've been
E Bsus4 C#m Cadd9 (strum down fast)
It was worth it in the end
