Intro: ( (D A x2) G  G7) x2

D            A
Up on a hill is where we begin

D              A                          G    G7
This little story, a long time ago

D               A 
Stop to pretend, stop pretending

D                               A                   G   G7
It seems this game is simply never ending

         D                            A
Oh in the sun, sun having fun, it's in my blood 

D                                        A
I just can't help it, don't want you here right now

G        G7
Let me go

   G           G7
Oh Let me go go go go go go go go

G7           F#
Leaving just in time

                Em
Stay there for a while

                F#m
Rolling in the ocean

                    A
Trying to catch her eye

                         F#
Work hard and say it's easy

                      Em
Do it just to please me

                   F#m
Tomorrow will be different

                    A
So I'll pretend I'm leaving
