[Verse 1]
[C]It wasn't the time, it was the col[F]or
[C]My mother wore a yel[F]low dre[C]ss
[G]Carrying [F]my brother[C]

[C]Bright like metal

[Verse 2]
The bank was built
With [F]green [C]glass
[G]I felt so [F]forget[C]table

[Verse 3]
[F]One loo[C]k, one[F] look[C]
[F]One loo[C]k and he'[G]ll rem[C]ember
[F]One[C] loo[F]k, one[C] loo[F]k
One [C]look and [G]he'll [C]remember

[Verse 4]
It wasn't the [C]time, it was the [F]color[C]
Dad in his red [F]Pendleton [C]shirt
[G]Shag carpet, bro[F]wn sofa[C]
The summer always [F]hot
[C]White and

[Verse 5]
still
He asked if I would
[F]Kiss him good[C]bye
[G]I knew the an [F]swer, "I [C]will"
[F]One[C] loo[F]k,

[Verse 6]
[C]one [F]look

I'll [F]miss [C]it forever
The summer al[Em]ways [F]empty

[C]And yellow
He kissed me that day
[F]By the pizza [C]place
[G]I felt so [F]forget[C]table
