The Summer

Bm                       A                              D
If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house and pour it
A
loose through your garden
       Bm                             A                       D
So the hinges on your windows would rust and colour like the boats pulled up on the
A
sand for the summer
Em                                    D                                 A
And your sweet clean clothes would go stiff on the line and there’d be sand in your
                Em
pockets and nothing in your mind
Bm                        A                        D                       A
But every year it gets a little bit harder to get back the feeling of when we were 15
            Bm                    A                               D
And we could jump in the river upstream and let the current carry us to the beginning
            A
where the river me the sea again
Em                      D                           A                         Em
And all our days were a sun drenched haze while the salt spray crusted on the window
Panes

We should be living like we lived in that summer

And I’ll remember that summer as the right one the storms make the pavement steam
like a kettle
    Bm                         A                         D                     A
And our first goodbyes always seemed like hours in the car park in between my house
and yours
           Em                   D                            A
And if the summer was a song we might sing forever then the winter holds a bite we’d
      Em
never felt before

      A                A/D           A/F#        A/G
But time, is like the ocean, you can only hold a little in your hands
     A                    A/D               A/F#                A/G
So we swim, before we’re broken, before our bones become black coral in the sand

A
loose through your garden
