sittin? in the woods behind my house

and holdin' hands with nobody else around

Charlie said he wanted to get married,
C G
but we were only ten so we?d have to wait

So we treat our love like a firefly,
C D G C G C
like it only gets to shine, for a little while

C D G C G
with holes in the top and run like hell, to show it off
F D
Oh promises we made when we?d go walkin?,
F D C G C G C
that?s just me and Charlie talkin',
(Verse 3)
