A Lifetime

Intro: F,C,G x2

(F,C,G)
Allie woke up 8AM, graduation day.
Got into a car, and crashed along 
the way.
When we arrived late to the wake, 
stole the urn while they looked 
away,
And drove to the beach cause I knew 
you'd want it that way

    Dm                             
And you were standing on the hood 
        C
of the car
   F                          G
Singing out loud when the sun came 
up.

Chorus:
E|E|---------|| 

F,C,G
And I know I wasn't right, but it 
felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind, like I 
thought she would.
And that DM  song was playing in my 
mind.
E|E|---------|| 

    Dm                  C   F
And three and a half minutes

Felt like a lifetime
F,C,G                      F,C,G
     It felt like a lifetime

(F,C,G)
And you move like water, I could 
drown in you
And I fell so deep once, till you 
pulled me through
You would tell me
 Dm                             C
"No one is allowed to be so proud
F                                 
They never reach out when they're 
G
giving up."

Chorus

(Go back and forth between F and C, 
listen to the recording)
Are you sitting in the lights? Or 
combing your hair again,
And talking in rhymes? Are you 
sitting in the lights?

(F,C,G)
When I got home, heard the phone, 
your parents had arrived.
And your dad set his jaw, your mom 
just smiled and sighed.
But they left soon and I went to my 
room.
Played that disc that you'd given me
And I shut my eyes, swear I could 
hear the sea.

     Dm                            
When we were standing on the hood 
         C
of your car
F                         G
Singing out loud when the sun came 
up.

Chorus

Dm                      C,F,G
And three and a half minutes,
Dm                      C,F
Three and a half minutes,
G
Felt like a lifetime.
