Tom: G
G D Am Em
[Verse 1]
G D
On a drive from St Lucia to Surfers
Am
In my old university car
Em
We had the windows down for our air con'
G
The door was so hot that you burned your arm
D
It was the tail end of a summer
Am
And the heat washed in with the breeze
Em
And you were searching for something to sing to
[Chorus 1]
G D
As the radio played another terrible song
Am Em
But lucky for me, you found the tape with Tallulah on
G
And it's been a long time
D
Since I've seen all my old friends
Am
But I really love my new friends
Em
I feel I've known them a long while
[Verse 2]
G D
Then last summer you wrote me a letter
Am
On the back of a surf magazine
Em
You said you didn't have any paper
G
And maybe you wondered what could have been
D Am
So I sent you a postcard from Berlin of a fat man eating a sausage
Em
It hid the fact that I was hiding
[Chorus 2]
G D
As the DJ played another terrible song
Am Em
But lucky for us, we found a bar with the Maytals on
G
And it's been a long time
D
Since I've seen all my old friends
Am
But I really love my new friends
Em
I feel I've known them a long while
[Middle]
G D Am Em
I'm wondering if I've already heard all the songs that'll mean something
G D Am Em
And I'm wondering if I've already met all the people that'll mean something
[Verse 3]
G D Am
But I find myself daydreaming of the places where we used to stay
Em
We used to brush them away
G D Am
St Kilda, Coolangatta, Bondi Beach and Coogee Bay
Em
I like the sound of their names
[Outro]
G D
And I wonder if you would wanna go there with me
Am
When I'm finished over here
Em
If you're not finished with me
G D
And I wonder if you would wanna go there with me
Am
When I'm finished over here
Em
If you're not finished with me
G D
And I wonder if you would wanna go there with me
Am
When I'm finished over here
Em
If you're not finished with me
