Key: G
Introduction:
G
Hot sun dancing on the river
G
We'd sit on the bank and watch the world go by
C
Our feet in the water, she pressed her lips to mine
G
We were so long on love but short on time
Em D
She could be a honeymoon suite in a little while
Em D
'Cause she was mine oh, for a little while
Chorus
G
I left every time I'd start to think about us
C
We sent that summer out in style
G
She's gone but she left me with a smile
C D
'Cause she was mine for a little while
verse 2
G
We'd take a ride and head on down to airport road
G
Put the seats back and watch the planes leave town
C
She always said nobody's strong enough to tie her down
G
Oh, but I wasn't looking for that anyhow
Em D
I knew she'd leave but I didn't know when
Em D
It matters to me now oh, but it didn't back then
Chorus
G
I left every time I'd start to think about us
C
We sent that summer out in style
G
She's gone but she left me with a smile
C D
'Cause she was mine for a little while
verse 3
G
I keep seeing pictures now of me and her and those summer nights
G
My mind fills with her oh, but it's alright 'cause
Chorus
G
I left every time I'd start to think about us
C
We sent that summer out in style
G
She's gone but she left me with a smile
C D
'Cause she was mine for a little while
