[Strophe]
C                         Am       G 
Crashed on the floor when I moved in 
C                                Am           G 
This little bungalow with some strange new friends 
C                      Am      G 
Stay up too late, and I'm too thin 
C                            Am      G 
We promise each other it's 'til the end 
           Am 
Now we're spinning empty bottles 
           G      F 
It's the five of us 
       Am                    G       F 
With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust 
   Am               G 
I can't resist the day 
       Am               G 
No, I can't resist the day
[Strophe]
 C                     Am      G 
Jenny screams out and it's no pose 
         C                  Am       G 
'Cause when she dances she goes and goes 
C                             Am     G 
Beer through the nose on an inside joke 
      C                Am        G 
And I'm so excited, I haven't spoken 
               Am          G       F 
And she's so pretty, and she's so sure 
       Am                     G         F 
Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her 
Am              G 
Summer's all in bloom 
Am                G 
Summer is ending soon
[Refrain]
        F              Am          G     F 
It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone 
        Am G            F        C     Am  G 
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses
[Strophe]
C                       Am      G 
Maybe I'm a little bit over my head 
    C                  Am       G 
I come undone at the things he said 
     C                    Am          G 
And he's so funny in his bright red shirt 
         C                  Am      G 
We were all in love and we all got hurt 
    Am                           G       F 
I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat 
     Am                       G      F 
The smell of gasoline in the summer heat 
             Am           G 
Boy, we're going way too fast 
              Am        G 
It's all too sweet to last
[Refrain]
        F 
It's alright 
       Am   G             F 
And I put myself in his hands 
       Am   G           F        C     Am  G 
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses 
F          Am         G            F 
Love, or something ignites in my veins 
       Am       G    F        C     Am G 
And I pray it never fades in white houses
[Pont]
 F   C    Am  G          F 
My first time, hard to explain 
          C  Am   G                     F 
Rush of blood, oh, and a little bit of pain 
        C      Am            G               F 
On a cloudy day, it's more common than you think 
    C  Am    G   C 
He's my first mistake
[Instrumentale]
F  Am  G  C
[Strophe]
C                    Am        G 
Maybe you were all faster than me 
     C                    Am  G 
We gave each other up so easily 
       C                        Am    G 
These silly little wounds will never mend 
C                   Am        G 
I feel so far from where I've been
[Refrain]
      F         Am           G         F 
So I go, and I will not be back here again 
     Am          G       F        C    Am G 
I'm gone as the day is fading on white houses...  
    F               Am     G           F 
I lied, wrote my injuries all in the dust 
       Am           G       F 
In my heart is the five of us 
     C    Am  G 
In white houses  
     F          Am      G       F 
And you, maybe you'll remember me 
        Am      G        F 
What I gave is yours to keep 
    C     Am  G 
In white houses 
F   C     Am G 
In white houses 
F   C     Am G 
In white houses 
C
