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, G
