Intro: C F (14x) 

C                            F 
  You seen the days when the roads were death, 
C                          F 
 And the fires burned right to the brim,  
C                         F 
 And the bike you rode to school now it rests,  
C                 F       C F 
 And your story begins.  

C                   F 
 You read your fair share of books,  
C                    F 
 You tied your lace a thousand times,  
C                            F 
 And you saw the good in the worst of the crooks, 
C               F      C               F 
 And your story begins, and your story begins.  


Am           G        C      F 
  The sun it burns so I jump right in,  
Am          G        C       F 
 I felt the cold sea kiss my skin,  
Am        G          C        F 
 I turned around and you were gone,  
Am       G           F    Am  G       F   F 
 And I'm thinkin' of you, thinkin' of you.  

C          F                     C   F 
 Old friend where you headed for now,  
C          F                     C   F 
 Old friend where you headed for now.  

C F (4x) 

C                    F 
 Window frames of old pictures of you,  
C                      F 
 And the tree outside appears on end,  
C                             F 
 And you seen the good in the seam of the crop,  
C               F      C               F 
 And your story begins, and your story begins.  


Am          G        C      F 
 The sun it burns so I jump right in,  
Am          G        C      F 
 I felt the cold sea kiss my skin, 
Am         G        C         F 
 I turned around and you were gone,  
Am         G         F              Am   G       F 
 And I'm thinkin' of you, can't stop thinkin' of you.  


Old friend... (4x)
