             D(group)
Let's not forget last night,
              C(9)(Yeah) (x3233x@1)how we drove along the Yarra,
       G5 (355xxx@1)              C(9) (x3233x@1)        D(group)
How we sang harmonies to Carole King.
      DThese (xx0232@1)three years now just gone,
             C(9)They (x3233x@1)are the legends of my mind,
        G5 (355xxx@1)                     C(9) (x3233x@1)                Dsus (xx0233@1)DWe (xx0232@1)both kneel at these rocks and drink of the memories


D(9) (xx0210@1)D (xx0232@1)   G5You (355xxx@1)are the tunes in my head,
    C(9) (x3233x@1)          Dsus (xx0233@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
The fire in my ribs,                                           .

DWe (xx0232@1)kissed on that bridge that fell down
         C(9)While (x3233x@1)we held hands at the Taj,
           G5 (355xxx@1)                      C(9) (x3233x@1)                  D(group)
We've been stuck in a cave with that bloke who says 'Oi Am',
           DAnd (xx0232@1)when I cried for my cruel heart,
              C(9)You (x3233x@1)rubbed my back 'til I felt better,
       G5 (355xxx@1)                  C(9) (x3233x@1)                   Dsus (xx0233@1)DWe (xx0232@1)ate bread on the lake and yearned for the seasons.
