The Summer We Raised You

A        E           D       A
Confess my sins to the falling rain
A            E         D      A
they all come down like radio waves
A            E            D           A
and I cut my teeth on the torture and pain
      E              D
but no one seems to notice

  A            E             D          A
Cantilever my sight will stretch this span
  A            E         D      A
crossing over a sea a sea of red
                 F#m          D A
and I throw my seeds in a hole
          F#m         D       A
into the earth but nothing grows

   A                     D        A
The summer we sat in the sun we raised you

A            E       D          A
Slowly your sent it fades like yesterday
        E               D   A
and the only thing that I have
A          E            D                  A
Is an empty house that's filled with your effigy
        E             D      A
now I'm forced to sit alone and

  A            E             D          A
Cantilever my sight will stretch this span
  A            E         D      A
crossing over a sea a sea of red
                F#m         D A
and I throw my seeds in a hole
          F#m         D       A
into the earth but nothing grows

     A           E                 F#m
And maybe someday I will come around
           A                         E                        F#m
When the buildings have fallen and plants have covered the ground

   A                     D        A
The summer we sat in the sun we raised you
