G Em C G Allow me to exaggerate a memory or two C G Where summers lasted longer than Am D Dsus4 D Well longer than we do C G When nothing really mattered Am Em Except for me to be with you C Am G But in time we all forgot and we all grew C G Your melody sounds as sweet Am Em As the first time it was sung C G D Dsus4 D With a little bit more character for show C G And by the time your father's heard Am Em Of all the wrong you've done C Am I'm putting out the lantern Am7 G Find your own way back home G Em If I'd forgotten how to sing C G Before I sung this song C G I'd write it all across this wall Am D Dsus4 D Before my job is done C G And I'll even have the courtesy Am Em Of admitting I was wrong C Am G As the final words before I'm dead and gone C G You've never been so divine Am Em In accepting your defeat C G D Dsus4 D And I've never been more scared to be alone C G Am Em If love is not enough to put my enemies to sleep C Am I'm putting out the lantern Am7 G Find your own way back home
