Crickets In The Rain

Allo Darlin'


Tom: G

G
Back in 1992
Em
sometimes dreams really did come true
C
I kissed you in a swimming pool
Em                            D
Your lips were sweet from the juicy fruit
G
And later is a refrain
Em
I heard crickets singing in the rain
C
And the weather with you
floating through
Em                             D
flourescent blue lights in the haze

C
And nothing feels the way it did before
    G                 D
and I am grateful for that
C
The truth is when I realized I loved you
       G                     D
it was like everything I had ever lost
         G
had come back

G
Drivin round in your car
Em
Start to feel a little older
C
And somehow I learned
Em
to never accept
                         D
the things that I didn't deserve
G
Walking past the reservoir
Em
and the place where he fell
when he saw the stars
C
I tried to hold on tighter to you
Em                          D
but I felt you slip through my grasp


C
And nothing feels the way it did before
    G                 D
and I am grateful for that
C
The truth is when I realized I loved you
       G                     D
it was like everything I had ever lost
         G
had come back

G Em C Em D

Em
And the night is warm
C
you turn a sprinkler on
G
There's an apricot sky
         D
over the city lights
Em
And I have a sense
C
that somehow this will end
G
and I am going forward
D
never to go back again

C
And nothing feels the way it did before
    G                 D
and I am grateful for that
C
the truth is when I realized I loved you
       G                     D
it was like everything I had ever lost...
C
And nothing feels the way it did before
    G                 D
and I am grateful for that
C
the truth is when I realized I loved you
       G                     D
it was like everything I had ever lost
         G
had come back

G
I saw you in a carpark
Em
reading Joan Didion in the dark
C
it's easy to see where things begin
Em                            D
it is harder to see where they end

C
And nothing feels the way it did before
    G                 D
and I am grateful for that
C
the truth is when I realized I loved you
       G                     D
it was like everything I had ever lost
         G
had come back
