Fmaj7         c               g
Allie woke up 8 am graduation day
Fmaj7          c                   g
got into a car crashed along the way
Fmaj7                    
we arrived late to the wait
c               g
stole the urn while they looked away
Fmaj7                 c                          g
drove to the beach cuz i knew youd want it that way

              chorus
d          
you were standin on the hood of your car
Fmaj7                             cadd9
singin out loud when the sun came up
Fmaj7                c                     g
And i know it wasnt right but it felt so good
Fmaj7                    c                     g
and ya mother didnt mind like i thought she would
Fmaj7         c                  g
that REM song was playin in my mind
d             Fmaj7             cadd9
3 and half minutes felt like a lifetime


Fmaj7               c     g
And you move like water
Fmaj7             c    g 
i could drown in you
Fmaj7            c      g 
and i fell so deep once
Fmaj7                c      g
till you pulled me through
d
and you tell me no is allowed to be so proud 
c                        cadd9
everytime when their giving up

         (Chorus)
youll change between fmaj7 and  
c constantly during this verse



Are you standing in the lights 

or combng your hair again and talkin in rymes

are you standing in the lines
Fmaj7               c                    g
when i got home i heard the phone your parents had arrived
Fmaj7                 c                       g
your dad set his jaw ya mom just smiled and sighed
Fmaj7                 c               
but they left soon and i went to my room 
g
played that disc youd givin me
Fmaj7          c                     g
shut my eyes swear i could hear the sea

             (Chorus)
