Tom: G

G            C        G          C
Best friends forever, don't ever change
G           C                D
Chiseled in purple ink on a bulldog yearbook page
G            C         G         C
We had more hairspray than we had bangs
G            C                           D
But hairdos, love, and friendship always find a way to age


[Chorus]
         C               G
Seasons come and seasons go
        C                G
Summer sand turns into snow
             C              G
Someone you loved along the way
            Em              D
Becomes someone you used to know
          C                 G
Now we're postmarked pretty paper
          C               G
Our best cursive from the heart
           Em         D             C
It's kinda funny how forever turns into

[Verse 2]
G          C      G         C
One can of Krylon, two shaky hands
G            C            D
Our favorite sonnet underneath the football stands
G             C        G             C
Third year of college, first year of love
G       C                     D
So many firsts, I thought the first was all there was


[Chorus]
        C                G
Seasons come and seasons go
       C               G
Summer sand turns into snow
             C              G
Someone you loved along the way
            Em              D
Becomes someone you used to know
          C                 G
Now we're postmarked pretty paper
          C               G
Our best cursive from the heart
          Em         D              C
It's kinda funny how forever turns into

[Bridge]
Em                D        Em            D
Thank you for the picture, thank you for the past
       Em               D            Em            D
And I hope you smile as easy in between the camera flash
   Em                D     Em            D
So here's to another year, here's to our memory
  Em                D             C
I think of you sometimes, and I'm glad you think of me


[Chorus]
        C                G
Seasons come and seasons go
        C              G
Summer sand turns into snow
            C               G
Someone you loved along the way
            Em              D
Becomes someone you used to know
          C                 G
Now we're postmarked pretty paper
          C               G
Our best cursive from the heart
          Em         D              C
