Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
How the time  passed   away,

all the trouble  that we gave

And all   those days     we spent
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
out by the lake
Gm7 Gm7 
 
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
Has it all   gone     to waste?
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
All the promises we made
Gm7 Gm7 
 
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Gm7 Gm7 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
One   by one,     they vanish just the same

Summer's never looked the same
Eb Eb 
 
The years go by and time just seems to fly
Bbsus2 Bbsus2 
 
But the memories remain
Eb Eb 
 
In the middle of Septem ber,
Gm Gm 
 
we'd still play out in the rain

Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
Now it all   seems    so clear,
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
there's nothing  left to fear
Gm7 Gm7 
 
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Gm7 Gm7 
 
So we made  our way      by finding
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
what was real
Gm7 Gm7 
 
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
Now the days  are      so long
Fsus4 Fsus4 
 
Ebsus2 Ebsus2 
 
that summer's moving on

We reach for something

that's already gone,     yeah
