C C/Em
butter on a summer day
Am
when she’s around
G
i was on the tracks
F
when the gate came down
C C/Em
suddenly i recognized
Am G F
those bloodshot rearview mirror eyes as mine
Am G F
i heard that whistle call my name
Am G F
and i almost drove away
chorus :
C
but megan i
Em Am G F
had a feeling that you would be on that train
G
so i just waited there for you
C C/Em
caught a ride to another town
Am
where the air was clean
G F
and the sun never goes down
C C/Em
everyone was standing in a line
Am G F
between the landing and the stairs
Am G F
i heard somebody call my name
Am G F
i almost climbed the stairs
C
but megan i
Em Am G F
had a feeling that someday you’d meet me there
G
so i just waited there for you
solo : chorus chords x2
C C/Em
butter on a summer day
Am
when i hear that name
G F
it’s a dream that never came true
C C/Em
sat down on the tracks
Am G F
and waited for a train to take me back to you
Am G F
somebody came and took my hand
Am G F
i finally had to go
C
but megan i
Em Am G
just want you to know
F G C
that i waited as long as i could
C C/Em Am
butter on a summer day when she’s around
bayside is a cult!
