C chordC                                        Am chordAm
So there we were, back home from somewhere inside my head
C chordC G chordG
Oh, bravely I fought off the monsters beneath her bed
C chordC Am chordAm
Pillars of postwar books supported by frame of mind
C chordC G chordG
While she memorized the pages that I tried to not hide behind
C chordC Am chordAm
She took my hand in hers and whispered her love for me
C chordC G chordG
The lantern died that night but we didn't need to see
C chordC Am chordAm
Implying that she's the bee's knees and I am the cat's meow
C chordC G chordG
it's funny how she recalls what I can't remember now


[Chorus]
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm G chordG Dm chordDm
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
C chordC F chordF Am chordAm G chordG
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G chordG Dm chordDm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
F chordF Am chordAm F chordF G chordG F chordF G chordG
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn...I got a sunburn

[Verse 2, Same chords as Verse 1]
C chordC Am chordAm
So there we were out there, unaware of where we'd been
C chordC G chordG
We kicked off our flip-flops and swung from the rooftops again
C chordC Am chordAm
it's awkward but I'll confess she's all I can think about
C chordC G chordG
And it's funny how I recall what she can't remember now

[Chorus]
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm G chordG Dm chordDm
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
C chordC F chordF Am chordAm G chordG
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G chordG Dm chordDm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
F chordF Am chordAm F chordF G chordG
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn

[Break, no lyrics]
C chordC, Am chordAm, F chordF
C chordC, G chordG, Am chordAm, F chordF


[Bridge]
C chordC F chordF
Oh, afterglow, look out below
Am chordAm G chordG
We left a trail of dust behind
C chordC F chordF
As we parted ways, she held my gaze
Am chordAm G chordG
And left an imprint on my mind
C chordC F chordF Am chordAm
I tried not to cry as we said goodbye
G chordG
And hung the clouds above my town
C chordC F chordF Am chordAm
But I shed a tear when she disappeared
G chordG
Cause now I'm a stranger on the ground


[Chorus]
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm G chordG Dm chordDm
When her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
C chordC F chordF Am chordAm G chordG
She gave me a heart attack
Dm chordDm C chordC Am chordAm
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G chordG Dm chordDm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
F chordF Am chordAm F chordF G chordG C chordC
But she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
F chordF Am chordAm F chordF G chordG C chordC
She got a tan, and I got a sunburn
F chordF Am chordAm F chordF G chordG C chordC
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
