We used to go out on the summer nights and dance in the neon rain

We used to hold hands at the movie show but we'll never hold hands again

   C          G       D
Do do do do do come on 

   C          G       D
Do do do do do come on

Those days are gone

You and I were young those summer nights 

G      D         C
You'll see the world 

G       D       C                D
Diving for a girl you'll never find 

                Em   D       C                D

You say I can find someone else but I just wish I was dead

Do do do do do come on

And then we'll quietly grow old, the saddest story ever told
