  Your ever lastin' summer, you can see it fadin' fast,

D               A                  Bm7                        A
  In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean.

  The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned;
D                 A                 Bm7           A
  The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand.

  That trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind.

  The things you think are useless I can't understand.
