Bringing up the past? 
C 
And how do we always

Make these moments last

And you're always complaining

And I'm always draining from the screams 
          
It's my dream 
            C#  
That you'll just come down  
                    C#m 
And look around and see... 
That...

And I've been laughing

The pain is killing

To give you, yeah, my, my coconut
