You're back beneath the sun

Back when we were still changin' for the better

Canceled plans just in case you'd call
           Chord diagramE minor 7Em7
And say "Meet me behind the mall"
                    Chord diagramA7A7
So much for summer love and saying "Us"
                    Chord diagramD/F#D/F#        Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2
'Cause you weren't mine to lose

'Cause it was never mine
 Chord diagramD/F#D/F#
And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets
