she smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles

                               Fm#                                D
when the world is hers and she held your eyes

	A                          E                            Fm#    D
out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer

	A                                   E                                Fm#     D
and she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
A E
         Fm#                     D
she looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer

                 A               E
but you've already lost

                 Fm#          D
but you've already lost

                 A               E
but you've already lost

                          Fm#                                   D
when you only had barely enough to hang on

                          A	E
and she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth

                               Fm#                                D
and she made you better than you'd been before
A E
   D
she told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
A E
       Fm#                    D
and she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
A E
Fm#                     D
she said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"

                 A               E
but you've already lost

                Fm#           D
but you've already lost

                 A               E
but you've already lost

                          Fm#                                   D
when you only had barely enough to hang on

E                                                                       E
she said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
E
                       A
and you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known

A                                                             E
some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure

Fm#                                                         E
days like that should last and last and last

A               E
but you've already lost

                Fm#           D
but you've already lost

                 A               E
but you've already lost

                          Fm#                                   D
when you only had barely enough to hang on
