C Am
so there we were , back home from somewhere inside my head
C G
oh , bravely i fought off the monsters beneath her bed
C Am
pillars of postwar books supported by frame of mind
C G
while she memorized the pages that i tried to not hide behind
C Am
she took my hand in hers and whispered her love for me
C G
the lantern died that night but we didn’t need to see
C Am
implying that she’s the bee’s knees and i Am the cat’s meow
C G
it’s funny how she recalls what i can’t remember now
[ chorus ]
Dm C Am G Dm
but when her smile came back and i didn’t feel half as horrible
C F Am G
she gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm C Am
we both put our sunblock on , played on the beach and
G Dm
vowed that we’d live and we’d learn
F Am F G F G
yeah , but she got a tan , and i got a sunburn . . . i got a sunburn
[ verse 2 , same chords as verse 1 ]
C Am
so there we were out there , unaware of where we’d been
C G
we kicked off our flip – flops and swung from the rooftops again
C Am
it’s awkward but i’ll confess she’s all i can think about
C G
and it’s funny how i recall what she can’t remember now
[ chorus ]
Dm C Am G Dm
but when her smile came back and i didn’t feel half as horrible
C F Am G
she gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm C Am
we both put our sunblock on , played on the beach and
G Dm
vowed that we’d live and we’d learn
F Am F G
yeah , but she got a tan , and i got a sunburn
[ break , no lyrics ]
C , Am , F
C , G , Am , F
[ bridge ]
C F
oh , afterglow , look out below
Am G
we left a trail of dust behind
C F
as we parted ways , she held my gaze
Am G
and left an imprint on my mind
C F Am
i tried not to cry as we said goodbye
G
and hung the clouds above my town
C F Am
but i shed a tear when she disappeared
G
cause now i’m a stranger on the ground
[ chorus ]
Dm C Am G Dm
when her smile came back and i didn’t feel half as horrible
C F Am G
she gave me a heart attack
Dm C Am
we both put our sunblock on , played on the beach and
G Dm
vowed that we’d live and we’d learn
F Am F G C
but she got a tan , and i got a sunburn
F Am F G C
she got a tan , and i got a sunburn
F Am F G C
yeah , but she got a tan , and i got a sunburn
