INTRO:
G - D/F# - Em7 - Cadd9 (x2)
VERSE 1:
G D/F#
Everyday I think about what you think about when you think about me
Em7 Cadd9
You gotta know how much I live my life by the things you taught me
G D/F#
I remember the first time that I saw you open the door for a lady
Em7 Cadd9
It was only the start of things that people comment on the way you taught me
PRE-CHORUS 1:
Em7 D Cadd9
The thought of the summer brings me there
Em7 D Cadd9
The thought of the summer brings me there
CHORUS:
G D
Things didn't work out between me and your mother, but
Em7 Cadd9
I just want you to know that I did truly love her, and
G D
I just can't wait for that one week in summer
Em7 Cadd9
When I don't get half a day with you
N/C
I get another week with you
INTERLUDE:
G - D/F# - Em7 - Cadd9
VERSE 2:
G D/F#
Well, listen it's coursing what's the point in forcing 'cause the thought of divorcing scares you
Em7 Cadd9 N/C
Learned that the hard way but now I can't say that it was the right thing to do
G D/F#
When I needed a friend, and I need a friend, unless I knew you'd be right there for me
Em7 Cadd9
Even when I think that all we did was drink then I see the moral of your story

Em7 D Cadd9
The thought of the summer brings me there, and I think about it

When I don't get half a day with you
N/C
I get another week with you
BRIDGE:
Am E
The memories blow away, but they come back again
G Dm
The winters turn to spring, I know you just can't win
Am E G
Nobody has to stay together for the kids, or for the sake of it
Dm Em7
I guess life gets in the way
PRE-CHORUS 2:
D Cadd9
The thought of the summer brings me there, and I think about it
Em7 D Cadd9
The thought of the summer brings me there

When I don't get half a day with you, I get another week with you
