[Intro]
G-Am-Em-D

[Verse 1]
 G            Am
Hand out the window
            Em
Floatin' on air
                    D
Just a flip of the wrist
                     G    Am-Em-D
I'd be wavin' you goodbye
 G                Am
Drive past the lifeguard stand
 Em                  D                  G      Am-Em-D
Where I sit around waiting for you to remember
 C          G
As I drive


[Chorus]
 G       Am                  C
How the girls could turn to ghosts before your eyes
         Em               D                Bb                C
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
 G           Am                    C
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
      Em                 D
Will stay with you in your steps
      Bb              C
And pace with you a while
 Bb  C       G   Am-Em
So long, so long
     D       G   Am-Em-D-G
So long, so long


[Verse 2]
 G             Am           Em
The speaker in this door is blown
     D                   G
So nothing sounds quite right
                  Am                       Em       D    G
Taking my time, taking this drive, waving this town goodbye
                  Am    Em   D
And I drive this ocean road
       G
And remember
                   Am                       Em
The small of your back, nape of your neck, I remember everything
 D      C
as I drive
                   G
Waving this town goodbye


[Chorus]
 G       Am                  C
How the girls could turn to ghosts before your eyes
         Em               D                Bb                C
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
 G           Am                    C
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
      Em                 D
Will stay with you in your steps
      Bb              C
And pace with you a while
 Bb  C       Bb         C      Bb        
       G  Am-Em
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long, so long
     D       G
So long, so long
                  Am                       Em     D    
  Am-Em
Taking my time, taking this drive, waving this town goodbye
     D       G   Am-Em
So long, so long
     D          C
So long, so long


[Bridge]
 C
And I will leave under the cover
 C
Of summer's kiss upon the sky
 C
Like the storm face of your lover
 C
Just before she says goodbye
 C
I was certain that the season could be held between my arms
 C
But just as summer's hold is fleeting
 C                       G  Am-Em-D
I was here and now I'm gone

(Repeat G-Am-Em-D for the rest of the song; end on G)
