night   and put my feet down

on the wet    patio floor 
F#m                  A 
   The sky's air had been

         F#m 
slipping off tree's leaves  
      A    E/G# D 
and splattering to the 
      F#m            A 
ground   It's always misty  
D      F#m           A E/G# 
after a   summer pour

out And staring

this one beautiful girl

       I sipped down 
D                  F#m A 
  some warm ginger ale 
D                 F#m 
  And drew back a breath

And headed over to

stared open and wide 
F#m             E/G# 
And I connected with 
            A 
her eyes to feel 
my gut fall 
A(Hold)     drumbeats 
through the floor and

she all those crazy years? 
   D 
And Oh who is 
A    Bm C#m D 
this?       Where was  
            A 
she when my heart 
F#m      E 
couldn't take its beat?'
