Intro:

C#m  E  Amaj7 

Verse 1:
         C#m       E                   Amaj7 
Do you remember?      laying on the sidwalk
                 C#m     E                       Amaj7 
waiting for your mama      to ring the dinner bell?

Verse 2:
        C#m      E                           Amaj7 
It was summer        in the year of the cicadas
                  C#m      E                Amaj7 
nothing seemed to matter atop our little hill

Bridge:
               C#m            E               Amaj7 
Until we rolled down down down down
               C#m            E               Amaj7 
until we rolled   down

Verse 3:
          C#m           E                               Amaj7 
And I was with you        that night they found your brother
         C#m              E                Amaj7 
His body trembling and yours a helpless shell

Verse 4:
          C#m       E                             Amaj7 
and our cicadas          were drown by all the sirens
                C#m              E                Amaj7 
that month you stayed by his bedside until he got well
               C#m              E                Amaj7 
until he got well

Bridge:
B            A          Amaj7 
 And I watched as you grew
           C#m 
into that woman you had always wanted to
          E                                       Amaj7 
nothing standing in your way could ever slow you down
           F#m                      C#m                       A 
and you'd wait for the day our cicadas would come back to stay
         E                     Amaj7 
but you know that aint how it works
          C#m                      Amaj7 
love aint real unless losing it hurts
