The F# is played by playing the barre chord, dropping the index finger, and playing the
open E string
as the bass note. Eric also likes to play the C#m as a C#m7, but that's pretty optional

[Intro]
B5 E C#m F#
[Verse 1]
B5 E C#m E
The summer just started
B5 E
You're on your front porch just dog watching
C#m E
While the kids on their bikes go by
B5 E
So let's go for a walk
C#m E
Give us a chance to finally talk
B5
About your family
E
About your role models
C#m E
And what's keeping you up at night
[Chorus]
B5 E C#m F#
We ran out of patience we ran out of time
B5 E C#m F#
We ran out of cash by the end of the night
[Verse 1]
B5 E C#m E
The seasons start changing
B5 E
Everything looks different with the sun half gone
C#m E
And the wind scraping past your face
B5 E C#m E
So why's everything gotta be so much harder than it used to
B5 E
When did we both become so different?
C#m E
Who is this asshole I'm turning into?
[Bridge]
G#m F#
When did we both become so different
E (let it ring)
I hate the person I'm turning into
[Chorus]
B5 E C#m F#
We ran out of patience we ran out of time
B5 E C#m F#
We ran out of cash by the end of the night
B5 E C#m F#
We'll spend all our tickets, we'll ride all the rides
B5 E C#m F# B5
Just two kids at the fair for the rest of our lives, and that's all right
