[Verse 1]
BThere was a place in Maine,
not that long ago
AbmWhere we would hide away,
for several months or so.
ETucked beneath the pines,
and uBnder summer skies,
a buGbnch of twenty somethings running barefoot every night.
And sBome of us were new,
and some had been for years.
And a Abmfew of us found love,
all of us had fears.
But evEery single night,
we'd gather by the fire,
and Gbsing away the night.
[Chorus]
And oh, when the fire buBrns Eout and the eBmbers all die,Gb  
we still Abmhave all our stEories,
like stBars in the sGbky.
And we will alAbmways reEmember how we lBit up the nGbight.
Oh, sAbmummers by the lEake,
like a mBillion tGbwinkling liBghEtsB..Gb.
[Verse 2]
And the Bdays were only measured by the sun's rise and fall,
and we Espent our nights out searching for the mAbmeaning of it all.
EFalling deep in love,
sneaking out at night,
Gbmsomehow it just felt right.
[Chorus]
And oh, when the fire buBrns Eout and the eBmbers all die,Gb  
we still Abmhave all our stEories,
like stBars in the sGbky.
And we will alAbmways reEmember how we lBit up the nGbight.
Oh, sAbmummers by the lEake,
like a mBillion tGbwinkling liBghEtsB..Gb.
Twinkling lBigEhtBs.Gb..
[Verse 3]
Well BI never saw it cGboming,
but now I'll always kBnow,
that summer is more than frAbmeedom,
and love will come and go.
We mEay not have it now,
but Bwe had it then.
We will nGbever be the same,
no matter how it ends.
Because wBhen we've all grown old,
living far away.
AbmOn our darkest days,
we will remember Maine.
Cuz there's soEmething about a fire,
and a cBouple rounds of beer.
And we'll tGbell em all our dreams,
love for all to hear.
[Chorus]
And oh, when the fire buBrns Eout and the eBmbers all die,Gb

Abm

Gbm

[Verse 1]

There was a place in Maine,

not that long ago

Abm

Where we would hide away,

for several months or so.

Tucked beneath the pines,

and under summer skies,

a bunch of twenty somethings running barefoot every night.

And some of us were new,

and some had been for years.

Abm

And a few of us found love,

all of us had fears.

But every single night,

we'd gather by the fire,

and sing away the night.

[Chorus]

B E B Gb

And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,

Abm E

we still have all our stories,

B Gb

like stars in the sky.

Abm E B Gb

And we will always remember how we lit up the night.

Abm E

Oh, summers by the lake,

B Gb B E B Gb

like a million twinkling lights...

[Verse 2]

And the days were only measured by the sun's rise and fall,

E Abm

and we spent our nights out searching for the meaning of it all.

Falling deep in love,

sneaking out at night,

Gbm

somehow it just felt right.

[Chorus]

B E B Gb

And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,

Abm E

we still have all our stories,

B Gb

like stars in the sky.

Abm E B Gb

And we will always remember how we lit up the night.

Abm E

Oh, summers by the lake,

B Gb B E B Gb

like a million twinkling lights...

B E B Gb

Twinkling lights...

[Verse 3]

B Gb

Well I never saw it coming,

but now I'll always know,

Abm

that summer is more than freedom,

and love will come and go.

We may not have it now,

but we had it then.

We will never be the same,

no matter how it ends.

Because when we've all grown old,

living far away.

Abm

On our darkest days,

we will remember Maine.

Cuz there's something about a fire,

and a couple rounds of beer.

And we'll tell em all our dreams,

love for all to hear.

[Chorus]

B E B Gb

And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,

Abm E

we still have all our stories,

B Gb

like stars in the sky.

Abm E B Gb

And we will always remember how we lit up the night.

Abm E

Oh, summers by the lake,

B Gb B E B Gb

like a million twinkling lights...

B E B Gb

Twinkling lights...

B E B Gb

Twinkling lights...

B E B Gb

Twinkling lights...

Abm E B

Twinkling lights.
