             C                                       Am  
So there we were, back home from somewhere inside my head
            C                                     G
Oh, bravely I fought off the monsters beneath her bed
           C                                   Am
Pillars of postwar books supported by frame of mind
               C                                      G
While she memorized the pages that I tried to not hide behind
            C                                       Am
She took my hand in hers and whispered her love for me
            C                                  G
The lantern died that night but we didn't need to see
              C                                        Am
Implying that she's the bee's knees and I am the cat's meow
               C                                G
it's funny how she recalls what I can't remember now


[Chorus]
Dm             C             Am           G                 Dm
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
              C             F               Am           G
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm              C            Am
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G                             Dm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
          F         Am       F       G         F       G
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn...I got a sunburn

[Verse 2, Same chords as Verse 1]
            C                                     Am 
So there we were out there, unaware of where we'd been
                  C                                     G
We kicked off our flip-flops and swung from the rooftops again
                 C                                  Am
it's awkward but I'll confess she's all I can think about
                   C                                G
And it's funny how I recall what she can't remember now

[Chorus]
Dm             C             Am           G                 Dm
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
              C                 F           Am           G
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
Dm              C            Am
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G                             Dm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
          F         Am       F       G 
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn

[Break, No lyrics]
C, Am, F
C, G, Am, F


[Bridge]
C            F
Oh, afterglow, look out below
Am            G
We left a trail of dust behind
C                              F
As we parted ways, she held my gaze
    Am            G
And left an imprint on my mind
C              F                     Am
I tried not to cry as we said goodbye
             G
And hung the clouds above my town
C               F                     Am
But I shed a tear when she disappeared
                G
Cause now I'm a stranger on the ground


[Chorus]
Dm           C               Am       G                 Dm
When her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
              C             F               Am           G
She gave me a heart attack
Dm              C            Am
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
G                             Dm
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
    F         Am       F       G       C
But she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
F         Am       F       G       C
She got a tan, and I got a sunburn
F                   Am       F       G      C
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
