VERSE 1:
E                     F#m      D
  There's a place off Ocean Avenue
  Where I used to sit and talk with you
E               F#m              D
  We were both 16 And it felt so right
  Sleeping all day, staying up all
E   F#m D             E    F#m D
  Night, Staying up all night

  There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
  We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
E               F#m              D

  Sleeping all day, staying up all
