A                                       D
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking, sittin'
                        A
in the woods behind my house
D                          A
When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and
                                E
holdin hands with nobody else around
  A                                     D
Charlie said he wanted to get married, but we
                            A
were only ten so we had to wait
D                                    A
He said we'd never let our love run dry like so

many do these days

CHORUS:
D
So we treat our love like a firefly, like it
      D    E  A
only gets to shine, for a little while
D
Catch it in a mason jar with wholes in the
         D   E    A
top and run like hell to show it off
G                                   E
Oh promises were made when we'd go walkin,
           G   E             A
thats just me and Charlie talkin

   A
Charlie always said he'd have to leave here,
  D                                  A
turned eighteen and left our sleepy town
D                                 A
Letters came and went and I kept waiting for

Charlie to come back and bring the life he'd
E
found
A
Funny how time and distance can change you,
D                                       A
the road you take dont always lead you home
D                               A
You can start a love with good intentions and

then you look up and its gone

CHORUS
