D G
It was the first snow of the season
Bm
I can almost see you breathing
A
In the middle of that empty street
D G
Sometimes I still see myself
Bm
In that lonesome bedroom Playing my guitar
A
And singing songs of hope for a better future
Em F#m G Bm
Life is Only As good as the memories we make
A
And i'm taking back what belongs to me
Em F#m G
Polaroids of classrooms unattended
Bm
These relics of rememberence
A
Are just like shipwrecks
Em
Only they're gone faster than
G D
The smell after it rains
( D G Bm G A )

D G
Last night while everyone was sleeping
Bm
I drove through my old neighborhood
A
And resurrected memories from ashes
D G
We said that we would never fit in
Bm
When we were really just like them
A
Does rebellion ever make a difference?
Em F#m G Bm
Life is Only As good as the memories we make
A
And I'm taking back what belongs to me
Em F#m G
Polaroids of classrooms unattended
Bm
These relics of rememberence
A
Are just like shipwrecks
Em
Only they're gone faster than
G D
the smell after it rains
( D A/C# Bm G A )
D A/C# Bm
So long Astoria I found a
Map to buried treasure
Em
And even if we come home
A
Empty handed we'll still have our
D A/C#
Stories of battle scars
Bm A
Pirate ships and wounded hearts
Em
Broken bones and all
A
The best of friendships
D
And when this hourglass has
A/C# Bm
Filtered out its final grain of sand
Em A
I raise my glass to the memories we had
D A/C# Bm
This is my wish and I'm takin back
A G
I'm takin them all back
