Allie woke up eight am graduation day
F Am G
got into her car crashed along the way
F Am G
we arrived late, to the wake, stole the urn while they looked away
F Am G
and drove to the beach, cause I knew you'd want it that way
Dm Em
We were standing on the hood of the car
F G
singing out loud when the sun came up
F Am G
And I know it wasn't right, but it felt so good
F Am G
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
F Am G
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
Dm Em
And three and a half minutes...
F G
felt like a lifetime
F Am G F Am G(PAUSE)
felt like a lifetime
F Am G
And you move like water
F Am G
I could drown in you
F Am G
And I fell so deep once
F Am G
Till you pulled me through you would tell me
Dm Em
No one is allowed to be so proud
F G
They never reached in till they'd given up (?)
F Am G
And I know it wasn't right, but it felt so good
F Am G
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
F Am G
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
Dm Em
And three and a half minutes...
F G
felt like a lifetime

Em/ Dm/Am G/ Dm/ Am/ F G
F G Dm Am G Am F G
Are you standing in the light,
Em/ Dm G/ Dm/ Am/ F G
combing your hair again
F G
and talking in ryhmes
F G Dm Am G Am F G(HOLD)
are you standing in the light
F Am G
When I got home heard the phone, your parents had arrived
F Am G
Your dad set his jaw, your ma just smiled and sighed
F Am G
But they left soon, so I went to my room played that disc that you'd given me
F Am G
Shut my eyes, I swear I could hear the sea
Dm Em
We were standing on the hood of the car
F G
singing out loud when the sun came up
F Am G
And I know it wasn't right, but it felt so good
F Am G
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
F Am G
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
Dm Em F
And three and a half minutes...
G
felt like a life time
