Tom: C
C* F*
Got bored in your bedroom so we went for a drive
C* F*
To the lake where I grew up, it was almost midnight
C* F*
Stole a boat and rowed out, watched the moon eclipse go by
C* F
And the water below us was as deep as the love that kept us floating there
F*
But this boat's sinking slowly now that you're gone
[Verse 1]
C F
I guess we'll just stop talking then
C
We can forget this ever happened
F Am
'Cause it's obvious I can't just be your friend
F Am F
I'm going in circles 'cause I only have one paddle out here alone
C F
Got back to shore 'bout 2AM
C
I grabbed your jacket on the boat dock
F Am
And I pulled you in and we kissed
F Am
It was so dark, I found your lips
F
Only because I felt your breath
C F
I know that soon I will be fine
C
You left this void the size of pines lake
F Am
Now I'm filling it up one cup at a time
F Am F*
And if I knew that was the last time I'd see you
I might have said
[Bridge]
C* F*
Hey Mary, that was one crazy summer
C* F*
I know after this we'll never see each other
C* F*
I'm old enough now to know nothing lasts forever
C*
The only thing I ask is please
[Verse 2]
F G
Remember every detail of this moment
Am
Because once you close that door you'll never see me
C
And some day you might remember
F
When we drove out to the lake
G Am
And stole a boat to see the moon eclipse go by
C
And when you think of this, I just want you to picture
F
Both my eyes looking intently
G
Hear my words as free verse poetry
Am
Feel my hands painting your body
C
Don't regret you ever met me
F
'Cause I know you couldn't love me
G Am
But if I must be a memory won't you frame me in a way
C F
That you will smile when you're picturing my face
G
And then I promise I won't call you like I did
Am
When I was drunk in Austin, Texas
C
Swear I had the best intentions
F* G*
I won't call you like I did when I was drunk in Austin, Texas
Am*
And I let out all my demons
C*
Swear I had the best intentions
