Capo di fret 5

C F Dm
salt air, and the rust on your door
Dm
I never needed anything more
C F Dm
whispers, of "Are you sure?"
Dm
"never have i ever before"

[chorus]

C
but i can see us lost in the memory
F
august slipped away
Dm
into a moment in time
G
'cause it was never mine

C
and i can see us twisted in bedsheets
F
august sipped away
Dm
like a bottle of wine
G
'cause you were never mine

C F Dm
your back, beneath the sun
Dm
Wishin' i could write my name on it
C
will you call,
F Dm
when you're back at school?
Dm
I remember thinkin' i had you

[chorus]

Am
but i can see us lost in the memory
F
august slipped away
Dm
into a moment in time
G
'cause it was never mine

Am
and i can see us twisted in bedsheets
F
august sipped away
Dm
like a bottle of wine
G
'cause you were never mine

[instrumental]

C F Dm G
C
back when we were still changin'
F
For the better
Dm
Wanting was enough
G
For me, it was enough

C
To live for the hope of it all
F
Canceled plans just in case you'd call
Dm
And say, "meet me behind the mall"
G
So much for summer love and saying "us"
C
'cause you weren't mine to lose
F Dm G
you weren't mine to lose, oh

[chorus]

C
but i can see us lost in the memory
F
august slipped away
Dm
into a moment in time
G
'cause it was never mine

C
and i can see us twisted in bedsheets
F
august sipped away
Dm
like a bottle of wine
G
'cause you were never mine

C F
'cause you were never mine
Dm
Never mine
G
but do you remember?

C
Remember when i pulled up
And said "get in the car"
F
And then canceled my plans
Just in case you'd call?
Dm
Back when i was livin'
For the hope of it all,
G
For the hope of it all
C
"meet me behind the mall"

C
Remember when i pulled up
And said "get in the car"
F
And then canceled my plans
Just in case you'd call?
Dm
Back when i was livin'
For the hope of it all,
G
For the hope of it all
"meet me behind the mall"

C
Remember when i pulled up
And said "get in the car"
F
And then canceled my plans
Just in case you'd call?
Dm
Back when i was livin'
For the hope of it all
G
For the hope of it all

C
For the hope of it all
F
For the hope of it all
Dm
For the hope of it all
G
For the hope of it all
