Intro: A E C#m A A E x2

       A                   E C#m
it was summer in our hearts
         A                    A E
when the wheat was fully grown
        A                   E C#m
saw you standing in the yard
  A               A E
a beauty to behold

A B           C#m          A
i carved your name on my arm
A B           E
i carved your name

       A                  E C#m
it was winter when we lied
    A               A E
and ran off to elope
       A                     E C#m
played cards that winter long
    A                   A E
and wrestled in the snow

    A B           C#m         A
and i carved your name in the ice
A B           E
i carved your name

      A               E C#m
drove south to alabama
         A                A E
with the ocean in our head
    A                       E C#m
you did not even wait for me
      A                     A E
doing cartwheels in the sand

    A B           C#m         A 
and i carved your name in the white
A           B              E
sand by the light of the moon
A  B        C#m       A
we stayed awake that night
A       B                 E
just to watch the morning come

A                        E C#m
this is where i leave you
        A                  A E
this is where my story ends
    A                        E C#m
you wanted to know the reason
        A                 A E
for the writing on my skin

A B          C#m        A
i carved her name on my arm
A B         E
i loved her then
