                 G
She smiled in a big way

                           D
The way a girl like that smiles

                   Em
When the world is hers

                   C
And she held your eyes

               G
Out in the breezeway

              D
Down by the shore

              Em        C
In the lazy summer

                   G
And she pulled you in

                  D
And she bit your lip

                  Em       C
And she made you hers

(C)
And she looked

 G
Deep into you as you lay together

 D
Quiet in the grasp

    Em              C
Of dusk and summer

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

             Em     C
But you’ve already lost

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

              Em
When you only had

        C
Barely enough

        G
To hang on

                 G
She combed your hair

                           D
And she kissed your teeth

                   Em
And she made you better

                   C
Than you've been before

               G
She told you bad things

              D
You wished you could change

              Em        C
In the lazy summer

                   G
And she told you laughung

                  D
Down to her core

                  Em
So she would not cry

                     C
As she lay in your lap

(C)
And she said

 G
Nobody here can live forever

 D
Quiet in the grasp

    Em              C
Of dusk and summer

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

             Em     C
But you’ve already lost

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

              Em
When you only had

        C
Barely enough

        G
To hang on

(C)
And she said

 E       G/B
No one is alone

 Asus
The way you are alone

 E               G/B
And you held her looser

Asus
Than you would've

  E     G/B
If you ever could have known

 E
Some things tie our lives together

E
Slender threads

                Em
And things to treasure

                      C
Days like that should last, and last, and last

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

             Em     C
But you’ve already lost

             G      D
But you’ve already lost

              Em
When you only had

        C
Barely enough

        G
Of her to hang on

 D
Hang on

 Em
Hang on

 G
Hang on
