[Intro]

[Verse 1]
A G I was loud and a little sad D She was visiting from Atlanta, Georgia A G She had come to spend the summer with her dad D I thought she was very pretty C Em We would kiss and hold hands C Em Every night by the football field C Em Her body was tan D From the afternoons by the public swimming pool
[Chorus]
A G Sweet evening breeze A G Blows around my thoughts and memories A As I lie here today G And drink my tea D I can still see A Sweet evening breeze
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
A G I saw her in a coffee shop D G In a big hotel down in Austin, Texas A G She had cut her long hair off D And replaced it with G D G Blue eyes of sadness C Em Still acted like we were kids C Em And she told me that she had to marry C Em And she asked me if I did D Still remember
[Chorus]
A G Sweet evening breeze A G Blows around my thoughts and memories A As I lie here today G And drink my tea D I can still see A Sweet evening breeze

[Verse 3]
A G How redundant the future can be D G These days of old are very, very A G Ridiculous for me to see G D G When I think about the real gone stories C Em And how time holds the winning hand C Bm A G I can tell by the lines on our faces C Em And the young can't understand D That they look at me G D When they look at themselves
[Chorus]
A G Oh, sweet evening breeze A G Blows around my thoughts and memories A As I lie here today G And drink my tea D I can still see A Sweet evening breeze
