G
Allie woke up 8AM
F#m
Graduation day.
Cadd9
Got into a car,
Dsus2
And crashed along the way.
G
When we arrived late to the wake,
Dsus2
Stole the urn while they looked away,
Cadd9
And drove to the beach
F#m
'Cause I knew you'd want it that way.
Am7
And you were standing on the hood of the car
F#m
Singing out loud when the sun came up.
*CHORUS:*
G
And I know I wasn't right,
Dsus2
But it felt so good.
G*
And your mother didn't mind,
F#m
Like I thought she would.
G
And that REM song was playing
D
In my mind.
C
And three and a half minutes
D
Felt like a lifetime...
F#m
It felt like a lifetime
*BRIDGE*
F#m
And you move like water (yeah...)
Dsus2
I could drown in you.
F#m
And I fell so deep once, (yeah...)
Dsus2
Till you pulled me throoough (ohh ohh...)
Dsus2
You would tell me
Am7
"No one is allowed to be so proud
F#m
They never reach out when they're giving up."
G
And I know I wasn't right,
Dsus2
But it felt so good.
G*
And your mother didn't mind,
F#m
Like I thought she would.
G
And that REM song was playing
Dsus2
In my mind.
C
And three and a half minutes
D
Felt like a lifetime...
F#m
Are you sitting in the lights?
G*
Or combing your hair again,
Dsus2
And talking in rhymes?
F#m
Are you sitting in the liiiights?
(softly...)
G
When I got home, heard the phone,
D
Your parents had arrived.
C
And your dad set his jaw
D
Your mom just smiled and sighed.
(getting louder...)
G
But they left soon and I went to my room.
F#m
Played that disc that you'd given me,
G*
And I shut my eyes
Dsus2
Swear I could hear the sea...
Am7
When we were standing on the hood of your car
D
Singing out loud when the sun came up.
*CHORUS*
G
And I know I wasn't right,
Dsus2
But it felt so good.
G*
And your mother didn't mind,
F#m
Like I thought she would.
D
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
C
And three and a half minutes,
C
Three and a half minutes,
