[Verse 1]
[G]I w[C]on'[G]t forget when I could
[C]n't [G]go to [Am]bed with the lights [C]off
An[G]d when I[D] he[G]ard that voice
call me in [Am]for t[Em]he n[G]ight[C]
I [D]remem[G] ber when love wa[C]s ju[G]st
a [Am]word and not a [C]fight
All [G]I had to worry about were b[Am]roken bones
and [C]being left [G]alone[C][G][D][G][C]
[G]Way back then there were
monsters in my [D]closet
And now there's just
skeletons hiding in there
[Am]The clock is ticking away,
the leaves are [C]still falling
every [D]day.
The [G]sunburn on my shoulders kept me [D]warm back then,
like the [Am]heat from the
blacktop, [C]again and [D]again. [C]I remember w[Em]hen smoke d[D]idn't f[Bm]ill my lungs,
[C]when my han[Em]ds
were lost [D]and so [G]young [D]it [C]seemed like [Em]the houses
were [D]touching the [Bm]sky and [G]i th[C]ought this s[Em]mile
on my [D]face would never [G]lie[D]
oh the summer we were staring at the sun
the summer we were staring at the oh
[D]The summer we were staring at the sun
[G]Way back then there were
monsters in my [D]closet
And now there's skeletons
hiding in there
[Am]The clock is ticking away
The leaves are still [C]falling every day
[D]The sun[G]burn on my shoulders
kept me [D]warm
Back then, like the [Am]heat
from the blacktop
[C]Again and again
[D][D]
