C Em Am
Summer everybody's coming home
Dm F Fm
And I'm lying in my old bedroom again on my own
C Em Am
Listen to the car's passing outside
Dm F
Remember Adam crashed his car into the tree
Fm
But somehow he survived
C Em Am
Then the next night you walked me home
Dm
We'd been drinkin' underage and
F Fm
you said do you think our parents know
[Chorus]
C Em Am
We hid a bottle in the trees
Dm
Oh, we couldn't find it later
F Fm
Guess the neighbour's getting drunk for free
C Em Am
Dm
No, we couldn't find it later
F Fm
Guess the neighbour's getting drunk on me
[Verse 2]
C Em Am
Some days are quiet in my mind
Dm
It's not that l don't miss you
F Fm
I have just lived this distance for some time
C Em Am
I still think about that September night
Dm
Sitting on an empty pier
F
Nobody will find us here
C Em Am
We were dreaming about where we both would go
Dm
You pointed out across the ocean
F Fm
Oh, I wonder now if I had known
[Chorus]
C Em Am
When we hid that bottle in the trees
Dm
That we wouldn't find it later
F Fm
Guess the neighbour's getting drunk for free
C Em Am
Dm
No, we wouldn't find it later
F Fm
Guess the neighbour's getting drunk on me
[Verse 3]
C Em Am
You waved at me from the front door
Dm
I told you I'd be home for Christmas
F Fm
I've been gone for 6 years more
C Em Am
You know I meant to call you back
Dm
It gets so busy in this city
F Fm
You expect me to keep track
C Em Am
It's raining in New York too
Dm F Fm
That doesn't mean I'm any closer to you
[Outro]
C Em Am
If I can't be your friend
Dm
I don't need you to believe me, oh
F Fm
But can't we still pretend
C Em Am
If I can't be your friend
Dm
I don't need you to forgive me, oh
F Fm
But can't we still pretend
C Em Am
If I can't be your friend
Dm
I don't need you to believe me, oh
F Fm
But can't we still pretend
C Em Am
If I can't be your friend
Dm
I don't need you to forgive me,
F Fm
I don't need you to forgive me
