The Boy Never Stays

   Em                            
He's the first taste of something 
       D
you shouldn't have
       Em                          
He's the first lie you tell to your
 D
 mom and dad
           Em                      
He's the reason you love the smell 
   D              C
of polo and peppermint

             Em                    
He's the lips that taught you how 
     D
to kiss
              Em               
He's the reason you know how to 
             D
drive a stick
            Em             D   
He's the last time you ever felt 
         C
innocent

Chorus:
         Em                        
It's a scene from a Saturday 
  C
matinee
      Em                        
It's a song that remembers those 
            C
summer days
   Em                    C        
Even if that cowboy rides away 
      D
real slow

The boy never stays
     Em            D
And the love never goes

              Em                  
He's the reason ferris wheels make 
D
you sad
          Em               
He's a box full of taped-up 
      D
photographs
             Em                    
He's the feeling that always feels 
D           C
like seventeen

           Em                   
He's a name that you hardly ever 
  D
hear
          Em                       
He's a face that you haven't seen in
D
 years
            Em                D   
That you meet up once in a while 
            C
in your dreams

Chorus

          Em         D            
You never fall quite the same 
   C
again
             D
After the first time
              C
Forever ends

Chorus

               C
Oh the love never goes

            Em                   
He's the first taste of something 
           D
you shouldn't have
                 Em                
He's the first lie you tell to your
         D
 mom and dad
