LA RE
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking, sittin'
LA
in the woods behind my house
RE LA
When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and
MI
holdin hands with nobody else around
LA RE
Charlie said he wanted to get married, but we
LA
were only ten so we had to wait
RE LA
He said we'd never let our love run dry like so
many do these days
CHORUS
RE
So we treat our love like a firefly, like it
RE MI LA
only gets to shine, for a little while
RE
Catch it in a mason jar with wholes in the
RE MI LA
top and run like hell to show it off
SOL MI
Oh promises were made when we'd go walkin,
SOL MI LA
thats just me and Charlie talkin
LA
Charlie always said he'd have to leave here,
RE LA
turned eighteen and left our sleepy town
RE LA
Letters came and went and I kept waiting for
Charlie to come back and bring the life he'd
MI
found
LA
Funny how time and distance can change you,
RE LA
the road you take dont always lead you home
RE LA
You can start a love with good intentions and
then you look up and its gone
CHORUS
