what is played. Your mileage may vary.

while sliding up as it makes for easier sliding when you use
that finger)

[Verse 1]
And even though the moment passed me by, I still can't turn away (tail riff x2 starts here)
Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose, Get tossed along the way (tail riff x2 starts here)
The letters that you never meant to send, Get lost and thrown away (tail riff x2 starts here)

[Chorus.]
G G D D
And now we're grown up orphans.
C C Em Em
That never knew their names.
G G D D
We don't belong to no one.
C C
That's a shame.
G G D D
You could hide beside me.
C C Em Em
Maybe for a while.
G G D D C C (hold)
And I won't tell no one your name.
And I won't tell em your name.
[End Chorus.]

[Verse 2]
Scars are souvenirs you never lose, The past is never far. (tail riff x2 starts here)
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there, Did you get to be a star (tail riff x2 starts here)
And don't it make you sad to know that life Is more then who you are (tail riff x2 starts here)

[Chorus.]
G G D D
You grew up way too fast.
C C Em Em
Now theres nothing left to say.
G G D D C C
And reruns all become our history.
G G D D C C Em Em
A A tired song keeps playin' on a tired radio.
G G D D C C (hold)
And I won't tell no one your name.
And I won't tell em your name.
[End Chorus.]

Solo. G G D D C C G G D D C C G G C C G G D D C C (hold)

[Verse 3]
I think about you all the time. But I don't need to sing. (tail riff x2 starts here)
It's lonely where you are so come back down.And I won't tell your name. (Don't play the tail)
