[Strophe]
G              Em7       Cadd9      G 
Allow me to exaggerate a memory or two 
        G             Em7         Gmaj7(9)       D 
Where summers lasted longer than...longer than we do 
       Cadd9           Em7              A7sus4    Em7 
Where nothing really mattered except for me to be with you 
       Cadd9   Em7    A7sus4    Gmaj7(9)  G 
But in time we all forgot and we all    grew
[Refrain]
      Cadd9            Em7         A7sus4            Em7 
Your melody sounds as sweet as the first time it was sung 
        Cadd9             G         Gmaj7(9)   D 
With a little bit more character for show 
    Cadd9              Em7            A7sus4                Em7 
And by the time your father's heard of all the wrong you've done 
     Cadd9  Em7     A7sus4          Gmaj7(9)        G 
I'm putting out the lantern find your own way back home
[Strophe]
    G             Em7          Cadd9             G 
If I've forgotten how to sing before I've sung this song 
      G             Em7          Gmaj7(9)         D 
I'll write it all across the wall before my job is done 
         Cadd9           Em7         A7sus4      Em7 
And I'll even have the courtesy of admitting I was wrong 
       Cadd9  Em7  A7sus4     Gmaj7(9)  G 
As the final words before I'm dead and gone
[Refrain]
            Cadd9     Em7        A7sus4         Em7 
You've never been so divine in accepting your defeat 
         Cadd9             G          Gmaj7(9)  D 
And I've never been more scared to be alone 
   Cadd9        Em7             A7sus4      Em7 
If love is not enough to put my enemies to sleep 
          Cadd9  Em7     A7sus4          Gmaj7(9)        G 
Then I'm putting out the lantern find your own way back home
