   Asummer was purring like a kittenD  
   Athe record needle starting skippingD  
i was squEeaking through the screen doorD  
                           ARiff      A  
in your kitchen
so do you want to go doDwntown with me A  
maybe stop by the library?D  
you rode Eby my sideD  
                                       ARiff    A  
on your dad's old ten speed
it felt like everything Dwas finally perfectA  
we rode past the empty stores and churDches
but then i looEked in your eyesD  
and they were anxiousA  
                       Riff
and they were nervous
                                         E=^.^=
under all the rolling clouds
over all Ethe fields that surroundD  
                     Intro Riff      A
this tiny town
later that night you started to cryD  A  
ran into the bathroom and locked yourself Dinside
i wanted to knock doEwn the doorD  
but instead i justA  
                                     riff           A
leaned against the other side
sometimes I feel likDe i still don't know youA  
after all the stupid stuff thaDt we've been through
how many horror Emovies have we sat through
how many sour patcAh kids
                 R----I---------F-----F     A
how many two liters of mountain dew
i want to see yDou get through thisA  
but it feels like nothinDg i say makes any difference
when i left Eyour house that night i felt totally awfulD  A  
               Riff
and selfish
                                   E=^.^=
