[Intro]
G       Em
[Strophe]
G 
They’re boarding up this water town  
Em 
Ain’t nobody hangin’ ’round 
C 
Another gray September day 
Am 
Was I crazy to think she’d stay?
[Refrain]
G                                                                                       Em 
If that sun would’ve just hung up in that sky just a little bit, yeah just a little bit longer 
C                                                                                             D 
If those blue water waves could’ve stayed at our feet on a beach ‘stead of going out with the tide 
G                                                                               Em 
If that wind was a friend it’d still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her 
C                                                                    D 
She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I  
                             G 
had a little more summertime.
[Strophe]
G 
I brace myself against the cold 
Em 
And let her memory take hold 
C 
Stirring that old fire up 
Am 
As if I don’t miss her enough.
[Refrain]
G                                                                                       Em 
If that sun would’ve just hung up in that sky just a little bit, yeah just a little bit longer 
C                                                                                             D 
If those blue water waves could’ve stayed at our feet on a beach ‘stead of going out with the tide 
G                                                                               Em 
If that wind was a friend it’d still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her 
C                                                                    D 
She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I  
                             G 
had a little more summertime.
