Verse 1
E                  F#m          D
There's a place off Ocean Avenue
                                    E
Where I used to sit and talk with you
             F#m                  D
We were both 16 and it felt so right
                                E   F#m    D
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiiight
               E  F#m  D
Staying up all ni-iiight
Chorus
E                      F#m                    D
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
                                           E
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
             F#m                    D
We were both 18 and it felt so right
                                 E   F#m  D
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiight
               E  F#m D
Staying up all ni-iight
             E        F#m
If I could find you now
D
Things would get better
           E          F#m
We could leave this town
D
And run forever
              E          F#m
I know some where, some how
D
We'll be together
          E          F#m
Let your waves crash down on me
D
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah
Verse 2
(same as Verse 1)
Theres a piece of you that's here with me
Its everywhere I go
It's everything I see
When I sleep
I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
Chorus
(same chords)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We could leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah

You were begging me not tonight
D
Not here

Not now

We look up at the same night sky

We keep pretending the sun will not rise

We'll be together for one more night

Some where

If I could find you now
Things would get better
