As the hem of her dress gently kisses the grass.

Like autumn turns leaves, winter will breathe, cold on our necks, snow in

last, that’s why fireflies flash.

When this summertime ends, we will not part as friends,

I run ‘long side the car turning numb to the sound.

INTRO X1
BRIDGE
Dsus Fadd9
Innocence didn’t mean we’re immune to these things,

Let’s blame the passage of time.
Dsus Fadd9
Love and loss, truth it costs more than I can spare right now.
Am G
Maybe it’s simpler to lie…
FINAL CHORUS
C G Am
Like autumn turns leaves, winter will breathe, cold on her necks, snow in
Fadd9
our paths.
C G Am
Wherever she goes, all that I know about us is that beautiful things never
Fadd9~

INTRO [keep playing to fade out]
Ooooh…. That’s why fireflies flash…
Ooooh….
END
all in all it’s really simple and like someone told me before, a “heart melter”.
tell me what you think, any criticism is welcome.
