C#m                                      A
       Do you remember the story of the boy and his first date?

    C#m                                  A      
She took him to the lake and he fell in love

C#m                                 A
       She spent one summer waking up between his arms

    C#m                                             B
She told him how good that felt, told him he was the one
[BRIDGE]
          A                  B                  
And then she went away, his calls were not returned                     

E               D#/E            C#m       B                        
     He went to see her but her eyes were burning a different stare          

                        E                                               
The focus was somewhere else                                            

          F#m         G#m      A                                        
And that feeling had somehow disappeared                                      
(D#/E: x698xx) [VERSE 2]
C#m (Let Ring)                   A
      Do you remember when they both drove out of state?

          C#m                                    A
Stealing kisses behind her cousins back, with a love so strong tell me who could wait
[CHORUS]
         B                     A                       E
When it seems so right and it feels so right, man, it had to be right

         B                     A                       E
When it seems so right and it feels so right, man, it had to be right (Gotta be right)
[INSTRUMENTAL] [E, A]         (x2) [C#m, E - A] (x2) [CHORUS] - [OUTRO]
         B                     A                       E
When it seems so right and it feels so right, man, it had to be right

         B                     A                       E
When it seems so right and it feels so right, man, it had to be right

         C#m                      B
But then she went away and she's not coming back

         A
And I'm pretty sure that boy is staying in tonight.
