Difficulty: Intermediate Intro: Em D C G D/F# x3 Verse 1: Em D Oh, we met on a summer night C G D/F# On a park bench in my hometown on the 4th of July Em D I played you that '73 Springsteen song C G D/F# I'd been staring at the stars with my lonely angel all night long Em D And you played these six strings like they were part of my soul C G D/F# On from then it was all about guitars and getting stoned Em D We watched those church bell blues go up in smoke C G D/F# Just rolling along when the good times rolled
Chorus: Em D C G D/F# We were gonna meet in that town by the sea Em D C G D/F# There was a promise of salvation, its echoes reaching out into our dreams C D There was wine on our lips and there was smoke on our breath Em D/F# C/G Brought down my guards just to let you in C D We were like lovers in those songs, who'd have thought that's what we'd become Em D/F# C/G When we had dreams and songs to sing G D/F# C/G we had everything Verse 2: Em D The night sky became a solitude C G D/F# As I watched the beat of those big engines side by side with you Em D You told me some of your stories and I told you some of mine C G D/F# And I found that harmony somewhere in your longing eyes Em D Countless cups of coffee, countless cigarettes C G D/F# Countless days and nights and smiles I swore not to forget Em D Countless times we fucked the law and then fucked some more C G D/F# Countless times I cursed the distance to the one to come back for Chorus: Em D C G D/F# We were gonna meet in that town by the sea Em D C G D/F# There was a promise of salvation, its echoes reaching out into our dreams C D There was whiskey on our lips and there was smoke on our breath Em D/F# C/G Brought down my guards just to let you in C D We were like lovers in those songs, so sure that that's what we'd become Em D/F# C/G When we had dreams and songs to sing G D/F# C/G we had everything Guitar Solo: Em D C G D/F# x4 Verse 3: Em D You held me close on New Year's Eve C G D/F# Those shooting stars granted me my wish for you to save me Em D You kept my head spinning and you made my heart sing C G D/F# Singing 'Hey there, lonely angel, where have you been?' Em D I took you to that bar where my lost harmonies roam C G D/F# And I played you all these songs so I wouldn't have to spend the night alone Em D Come morning the winter air was filled with snow C G D/F# Kissed you a thousand times goodbye and still it broke my heart to go Chorus: Em D C G D/F# We were gonna meet in that town by the sea Em D C G D/F# There was a promise of salvation, its echoes reaching out into our dreams C D There was smoke on our lips and we were out of breath Em D/F# C/G Brought down my guards just to let you in C D We were like lovers in those songs, but that was all we would become Em D/F# C/G When we had dreams and songs to sing G D/F# C/G Once we had everything
