[Verse 1]
F           C                G                   Am7
You said to me that you were scared of what’s to come
F           C              G
 And I said honey don’t you mind
F             C         G          Am7
 Cause letting go wasn’t such a bad idea and
F           C      G
 You got it all to find
F      C                     G            Am7
 And I remember watching your heart hit the floor
F          C            G
 And them  tears on your cheeks
       F               C
With a ticket in hand, second chance
G                      Am7
You were leaving for a distant land
    F        C               G
And I wasn’t gonna hold your hand
   Am7 G    F       G
Or fit your plans
[Chorus]
      F        C               F       C
But I hope you know you that I miss it so bad
    F         C         G
The nights we spent out on our own
      F       C
On an eastern coastline
F               C
Looking for the wild times
F                   C        G
And our worlds just spinning out of time
        Am7
And I remember singing to Brown Eyed Girl
F
Taking the long way home
C                  G
And we would never fall
        Am7
And the skies were never high enough
F
To keep it all from blowing up
C                  G
But this is all we know
And so
F        C      G
When the moment comes
N.C.
I’ll be heading straight back home to you
F C G Am7
F C G
[Verse]
    F            C
And I was headed for the door
         G                     Am7
When you turned and grabbed my shirt
You said
 F               C                 G
"is this how you say thank you for all the things we’ve learned?"
F           C                  G              Am7
But you and me my dear we were never meant to be
     F        C             G 
Just two lost teens between one of the seven seas
F      C                     G             Am7
 And I remember watching your heart hit the floor
F        C             G
 And them tears on your cheeks
       F               C
With a ticket in hand, second chance
G                      Am7
You were leaving for a distant land
    F        C               G
And I wasn’t gonna hold your hand
[Chorus]
      F        C               F       C
But I hope you know you that I miss it so bad
    F         C         G
The nights we spent out on our own
      F       C
On an eastern coastline
F               C
Looking for the wild times
F                   C        G
And our worlds just spinning out of time

And I remember singing to Brown Eyed Girl

Taking the long way home

And we would never fall
