Verse 1:
E MajorE        Amaj7Amaj7                 F#m7F#m7
Salt air, and the rust on your door
               F# minorF#m
I never needed anything more
E MajorE       Amaj7Amaj7       F#m7F#m7
Whispers of "Are you sure "
             F# minorF#m
"Never have I ever  before"

Chorus:
    E MajorE
But I can see us lost in the memory
Amaj7Amaj7                                F#m7F#m7
August slipped away into a moment in time
                    BB
'Cause it was never mine
    E MajorE
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
Amaj7Amaj7                               F#m7F#m7
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
                      BB
'Cause you were never mine


Verse 2:
E MajorE        Amaj7Amaj7           F#m7F#m7
Your back beneath the sun
                F# minorF#m
Wishin' I could write my name on it
E MajorE            Amaj7Amaj7                F#m7F#m7
Will you call when you're back at school?
           F# minorF#m
I remember thinkin' I had you

Bridge:
E MajorE                                        Amaj7Amaj7
Back when we were still changin' for the better
             F# minorF#m
Wanting was enough
               BB
For me, it was enough
                E MajorE
To live for the hope of it all
                       Amaj7Amaj7
Canceled plans just in case you'd call
                             F# minorF#m
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
                       BB
So much for summer love and saying "us"
                   E MajorE            Amaj7Amaj7
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
                    F# minorF#m   BB
You weren't mine to lose, oh

But do you remember?
                E MajorE
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
