[Verso 1]
-------
Dmaj7
I'm walking by
Amaj7
Where I first met you
Dmaj7
I'm saying hello
Amaj7
But I wanna forget
Dmaj7
We let the summer burn
Amaj7
Through the month of November
Dmaj7
We used to fly so high
Amaj7
From what I remember
[Refrão]
-------
Dmaj7
You can try
A
But I won't care
Fm
We can drive for miles
E
But only she can get me there
Dmaj7
And all your signs
A
I'm glad they don't lead me anywhere
Fm
Oh, I don't wanna burn out, baby
E
So why can't I stay a while
When I have her on my mind

[Verso 2]
-------
Dmaj7
Time goes by
Amaj7
Still it won't move me
Dmaj7
And the words I should have found
Amaj7
Came to me too slowly
Dmaj7
You're trying your best
Amaj7
To please somebody
Dmaj7
No one said it would be hard
Amaj7
But goodbyes are never easy
[Refrão]

Dmaj7
You say you never saw it coming
Amaj7 Dmaj7
But you ain't got that thing she has
Amaj7
I know enough about it
Take me as I am
Dmaj7
Or leave here fast
Amaj7
I don't wanna hear about it
Got the wrong place
Dmaj7
At the right time
Amaj7
You know but you can't win
Yeah, you know
Dmaj7
She's on my mind
Amaj7
All the time
