**CAPO 2** C5 G5 Allie woke up 8AM D5 Graduation day. C5 Got into a car, G5 * D5 And crashed along the way. C5 G5 When we arrived late to the wake, D5 Stole the urn while they looked away, C5 And drove to the beach G5 * D5 'Cause I knew you'd want it that way. A5 A5 And you were standing on the hood of the car C5 D5 Singing out loud when the sun came up. *CHORUS:* C5 G5 And I know I wasn't right, D5 But it felt so good. C5 G5 * And your mother didn't mind, D5 Like I thought she would. C5 G5 And that REM song was playing D5 In my mind. A5 A5 C5 And three and a half minutes D5 Felt like a lifetime... C5 G5 D5 It felt like a lifetime *BRIDGE* C5 G5 D5 And you move like water (yeah...) C5 G5 * D5 I could drown in you. C5 G5 D5 And I fell so deep once, (yeah...) C5 G5 * D5 Till you pulled me throoough (ohh ohh...) D5 You would tell me A5 A5 "No one is allowed to be so proud C5 D5 They never reach out when they're giving up." C5 G5 And I know I wasn't right, D5 But it felt so good. C5 G5 * And your mother didn't mind, D5 Like I thought she would. C5 G5 And that REM song was playing D5 In my mind. A5 A5 C5 And three and a half minutes D5 Felt like a lifetime... C5 G5 D5 Are you sitting in the lights? C5 G5 * Or combing your hair again, D5 And talking in rhymes? C5 G5 * D5 D5 Are you sitting in the liiiights? (softly...) C5 G5 When I got home, heard the phone, D5 Your parents had arrived. C5 And your dad set his jaw G5 D5 Your mom just smiled and sighed. (getting louder...) C5 G5 But they left soon and I went to my room. D5 Played that disc that you'd given me, C5 G5 * And I shut my eyes D5 Swear I could hear the sea... A5 A5 When we were standing on the hood of your car C5 D5 Singing out loud when the sun came up. *CHORUS* C5 G5 And I know I wasn't right, D5 But it felt so good. C5 G5 * And your mother didn't mind, D5 Like I thought she would. C5 G5 D5 And that REM song was playing in my mind. A5 A5 C5 And three and a half minutes, D5 A5 C5 Three and a half minutes, D5 G5 Felt like a lifetime.
