Bm 
Em 
G 
D 
The July wind
A 
blew from the mountain
G 
and threw a chill on the
D 
lake shore
G 
The whitecaps danced around us
A 
D 
like they never have before
F#m 
Em 
There ain't no room in this little town
F#m 
Em 
No one to settle up the score
D 
So we must live with what
G 
we both put down
A 
D 
just before we lost the war
G 
D 

Verse 2

My love for you has gone unspoken
G 
D 
Still you knew the words I'd say
G 
Yet we stand here with both
hearts broken
Asus4 
A 
D 
on       this windy summer day
F#m 
Em 
I can't find relief in the lies
F#m 
I told
Em 
but they came right from my core
D 
G 
I still believe one of us ran cold

just before we lost the war

was plenty

But it gets cut short for so many

A 
D 
It could be me; it could be you
F#m 
There ain't no wind
Em 
that can blow the truth
F#m 
Em 
back to where it stood before
D 
And I couldn't change it
G 
in a cold phone booth
Asus4 
A 
D 
just     before we lost the
G 
war
D 
G 

Verse 4

A 
So say goodbye and fare- thee- well
G

Tell everyone I'm doing fine
G 
For as far as I can tell
A 
D 
I'm just ten years down the line
F#m 
Em 
F#m 
What  we give we can't get back
Em 
and we always ask for more

We could not
G 
retreat; we could not attack
