Standard (EADGBE)

or

so you packed up

and left town unannounced

left a note by the door

that said you'd gone away

and you said that the girl that we all thought we knew

was just in our heads it was never you and you said

"i'm sorry, just don't miss me tonight"

well this time it's over and you won't cave in

and it's sure to be summer till i see you again

so i'll teach myself to never let you down

Note: palm mute these chords for second verse:

for every word i wished i'd said

there's another minute where i died instead

as the fact that you were gone started to kill me

christmas is coming and you won't be there

to feed me your lines and claim you still care

yeah, i've heard it before so don't think that i would forget it

well this time it's over and you won't cave in

and it's sure to be summer till i see you again

so i'll teach myself to never let you down

never forget the lessons you've learned

and i won't forget all the sparks that we've burned

counting stars in the back yard, morning came too soon

i miss bright new york nights

and i promise that this time we'll be just fine

and all i really wanted was for you to hold me

i miss bright new york nights

and i promise that this time we'll be just fine

and all i really wanted was for you to hold me

Won't you hold me?

well this time it's over and you won't cave in

and it's sure to be summer till i see you again

so i'll teach myself to never let you down

never forget the lessons you've learned

and i won't forget all the sparks that we've burned

counting stars in the back yard, morning came too soon
