Intro: G  D  Am  C 

Verse: 1 

G 
A cool summer night 
D 
We spend watching the fireflies 
Am                         C 
Dance in the light of the moon 
G                              D   
Who would've guess that when we thought it was 
             Am                        C 
Real was so fragile and then ended so soon 
D             Am       C            
I miss what we had together 
    D          Am       C 
We promise each other forever 



G 
Was it a long time ago? 
D 
I don't even know 
Am                                   C                                 
I barely recognize the places that we use to go 
G 
I lost track of time 
D 
it seems like just yesterday 
Am           C     G     Am      C      G 
but your slipping away, your slipping away 


D  Am  C 


Verse 2: 

G 
Well I've reminisced 
                         D 
and recollected all the thoughts of you 
                      Am 
and placed them in a box 
          C 
under my bed 
G 
But nothing i can do 
D 
and nothing anyone can say 
Am                            C 
can erase the memories in my head 
D                      Am      C 
you're a vision that wont go away 
Am                  C 
why wont you stay, why wont you stay 

Chorus 

D  Am  C 

G  D  Am  C 
dadadadada... 


Chorus 


D  Am  C 


G 
A cold summer night 
D 
Was spend watching the fireflies 
Am             C           G 
Dance in the light of the moon
