D                   A
  I look back to the one
                Bm
and only summer time
                    A
And my girl was the envy
                    G
of every friends of mine
                 D
She slept safely in my arms
G                     A
We were so young and invincible
D
  Closed lips, she was
A/D                  Bm
never one to kiss and tell
Those trips in the
A                   G
summer never went so well
              D
Young love is such dumb love
G
Call it what you want
        A
it was still enough


[Pre-chorus]

     Bm  G D        A
And still   out of my reach
     Bm  G D         A
And still   all of the things
       Bm         G
That I want in my life
D          A         G    A
How could I ask you to leave me?


[Chorus 1]

    D                   G
And we were just kids in love
               A
The summer was full of
            F#m
mistakes we wouldn't learn from
Bm          A
  The first kiss stole
    G
the breath from my lips
G                   A
Why did the last one tear us apart?

[Verse 2]

D
  Our breath smelled of
A                 Bm
cigarettes and alcohol
                   A
We'd walk down the beach
                G
counting every star
                  D
Our hearts beat inside our chest
G                     A
Leaving us gasping for every breath
D                   A
  Her smile with the wind
                    Bm
blowing through her hair
       A                G D
Was so contagious in the air
G                A
So satisfying and I'm still smiling


[Pre-chorus]

     Bm  G D        A
And still   out of my reach
     Bm  G D         A
And still   all of the things
       Bm         G
That I want in my life
D          A         G    A
How could I ask you to leave me?


[Chorus 1]

    D                   G
And we were just kids in love
               A
The summer was full of
            F#m
mistakes we wouldn't learn from
Bm          A
  The first kiss stole
    G
the breath from my lips
G                   A
Why did the last one tear us apart?
