[Verse 1]
B           G#m            EM7          B
It's gotten late and now I want to be alone

B            G#m                   EM7            B
All of our friends were here; they all have gone home

           D#m                E
And here I sit on the front porch

               C#m           Em             B
Watching the drunks stumble forth into the night
[Verse 2]
               G#m            EM7              B
You gave me a heart attack; I did not see you there

B                 G#m             EM7             B
I thought you had disappeared so early away from here

                 D#m            E            C#m
And this is the chance I never got to make a move

             Em
But we just talk about
[Chorus]
     C#m            E          B
The people we have met in the last 5 years

     C#m     E           B
And will remember them in ten more?
[Verse 3] (like the first 2 lines of the earlier verses)
B         G#m              EM7               B
I let you bum a smoke; you quit this winter past

B           G#m                   EM7                     B
I've tried twice before, but like this, it just will not last
[Outro] C#m E B (2x)
