this song is one of my favorites from ’pretty . odd . ’ . it’s a lot of fun to play
and sing with friends , and pretty easy . find out the strumming yourself , or ( as i
do ) just improvise . enjoy! [ :
G Em C G
allow me to exaggerate a memory or two
C G
where summers lasted longer than
Am D Dsus4 D
well longer than we do
C G
when nothing really mattered
Am Em
except for me to be with you
C Am G
but in time we all forgot and we all grew
C G
your melody sounds as sweet
Am Em
as the first time it was sung
C G D Dsus4 D
with a little bit more character for show
C G
and by the time your father’s heard
Am Em
of all the wrong you’ve done
C Am
i’m putting out the lantern
Am7 G
find your own way back home
G Em
if i’d forgotten how to sing
C G
before i sung this song
C G
i’d write it all across this wall
Am D Dsus4 D
before my job is done
C G
and i’ll even have the courtesy
Am Em
of admitting i was wrong
C Am G
as the final words before i’m dead and gone
C G
you’ve never been so divine
Am Em
in accepting your defeat
C G D Dsus4 D
and i’ve never been more scared to be alone
C G Am Em
if love is not enough to put my enemies to sleep
C Am
i’m putting out the lantern
Am7 G
find your own way back home
