♫ Verse 1:
Gm
 Meeting up, like we're 17 again
G
 Solo cups, but now we put beer in them
C
 Laying back and daring me to
C
 Dive into the deep end
Gm
 Reaching out, how you been holding up?
G

'Cause I heard you'd recently broken up
C
 With the boy you grew apart from
C
 So much for your first love

Gm
 And we laugh like little kids
G
 Bad jokes for the hell of it
C
 Mom says come inside, we say "in a minute"

But I wish that I could

Gm               G
Close my eyes, ignore the sirens

We won't Go unless we're dying
    C                                C

And you know in July

Those summer nights belong to you and I

♫ Verse 2:

Moving out and counting the miles, this
G
 Little town takes all of your breath with it
C
 Fatal flaw, I'm sick of it all

But now that I'm leaving, I'm missing

All the late nights in
        G
Let our deepest secrets slip

Holding tight, this was nice, wasn't it?

But I wish that I could

♫ Bridge:
Gm
 Hold on a little longer
G
 You're slipping through my fingers
C                         C
 The tide will pull us under

What's left of you will linger
Gm
 Hold on a little longer

 You're slipping through my fingers

 The tide will pull us under

What's left of you will linger
