VERSE 1: [F#] Your ever lastin' [C#/F] summer
You can [D#m7] see it fadin' [C#] fast [F#] So you grab a piece of [C#/F] somethin'
That you [D#m7] think is gonna [C#] last
Well, [G#m] you wouldn't even know [F#] a diamond
If [F#m] you held it in [C#] your hand [F#] The things you think are [C#/F] precious
I just [D#m7] can't under-[C# open]-stand
CHORUS:
Are you reelin' in the [B] years
Stowin' away the [C#] time
Are you gatherin' up the [B] tears
Have you had enough of [C#] mine
VERSE 2: [F#] You been tellin' me you're a [C#/F] genius
Since [D#m7] you were seven-[C#]-teen
In [F#] all the time I've [C#/F] known you
I still [D#m7] don't know what you [C#] mean
The [G#m] weekend at the [F#] college
Didn't [F#m] turn out like you [C#] planned
The [F#] things that pass for [C#/F] knowledge
I just [D#m7] can't under-[C# open]-stand
VERSE 3: [F#] I spend a lot of [C#/F] money
And I [D#m7] spent a lot of [C#] time
The [F#] trip we made to [C#/F] Hollywood
Is [D#m7] etched upon my [C#] mind
After [G#m] all the things we've [F#] done and seen
You find [F#m] another [C#] man
The [F#] things you think are [C#/F] useless
I [D#m7] can't under-[C# open]-stand
