I  thought

Bm 
C 
I'd beat the sun to this day
D 
I've come to move
Bm 
C 
D 
the last of my things out of your way
Bm 
C

Bm 
C 
But now you're in the doorway
D 
And it was August
Bm 
C 
D 
the time that we first stood here
Bm 
C 
The way I know is
D 
you've always feared
Bm 
C 
D 
Bm 
C 
The coming of fall
G 
Well maybe we could say at least
Am 
D 
Something nice about the weather
G 
It's all in common,
Am 
D 
we have any more than I can see
G 
Am 
There isn't much about this place
D 
that I'd care to remember at all
C 
G 
It's only that we're living here
C 
G 
I stayed the evening over and never left
C 
It's only that we're living here,

You showed me into all of your spaces

And I could never face up
D 
to this being freedom
Bm 
C 
D 
There's always somewhere to be there
Bm 
C 
D 
I should have told
Bm 
C 
D 
you the day that I first
Bm 
C 
D 
But I was sure it was way too soon,
G 
C 
D 
G 
C 
but now it's way too late
G 
Am 
Maybe there's a way to save
D 
what's left of this summer
G 
I keep looking back on us
Am 
D 
looking ahead to next  year
G 
Should we say to ourselves,
Am 
the only way to ourselves
D 
Is right around us, right around us
C 
G 
And it's only when we're living here
C 
Here in your eyes,
G 
in this old place I come alive
C

All our arguments
lined up are the same
D 
About me changing,
Am 
well, I'm almost up to

I should have begun,
D 
now are you gone?
G 
Am 
Maybe we should go inside
D 
and we'll ride out the weather
Here it comes again
G 
Am 
It's not like there's anywhere else
D 
that I need to be
G 
I want days of rain
Am 
to get here and explain
D 
You're all I'll ever need,
all I'll ever need
C 
It's only that we're liv

It wasn't only living
C 
that we were trying
You
