I finally asked you to dance on the last slow song
F*
Beneath that moon that was really a disco ball
G*
I can still feel my head on your shoulder
G*
Hoping that song would never be over
F*
I haven't seen you in ages
G*
Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are
F*
For me you'll always be eighteen
C*
And beautiful and dancing away with my heart
F* (x2)
F*
I brushed your curls back so I could see your eyes
F*
And the way you moved me was like you were reading my mind
G*
I can still feel you lean in to kiss me
G* (let ring)
I can't help but wonder if you ever miss me
F*
I haven't seen you in ages

Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are
F*
For me you'll always be eighteen

You headed off to college at the end of that summer and we lost touch

I guess I didn't realize even at the moment we lost so much

I haven't seen you in ages
G* (resume regular strumming)
Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are

For me you'll always be eighteen

Away with my heart
