Verse 1
The summer's [G]ove[D]r, this town is [G]clos[D]ing.
They're waving [G]peo[D]ple out of the [A]ocea[D]n.
We had the f[G]eel[D]ing like we were f[G]loat[D]ing.
We never [G]noti[D]ced where time was [A]goin[D]g.
Do you rem[G]emb[D]er when we first [G]got [D]here?
The days were [G]lon[D]ger; the nights were [A]hot [D]here.
Now, it's [G]Septem[D]ber; the engine's [G]star[D]ting.
You're empty-[G]han[D]ded and heavy-[A]hearte[D]d.
Chorus
But just remember on the [G]way home, (Oooh ooh [Bm]ooh)
That you were never meant to [G]feel alone.
[G]It takes a little [D]while, but [G]you'll be [D]fine,
G D A D (hold)
Another good time coming down the line.

Verse 2
[A]You'll go [D]back to [A]love that's [D]waiting,
[A]I'll unp[D]ack in a [A]rented room.
[A]How's that [D]life you [A]swear you're [D]hating?
[A]Grass is [D]greener, [A]that makes [D]two.
Chorus
But just remember on the [G]way home, (Oooh ooh [Bm]ooh)
That you were never meant to [G]feel alone.
Just [G]look me [D]up; get [G]back on the [D]bus.
I'll [G]see you next [D]week if you [A]need my [D]trust.
Verse 3
(D chords throughout this verse, you can switch among D, Dsus4, D5, to keep it from getting stale)
Life ain't short, but it sure is small.
You get forever but nobody at all.
Life ain't short, but it sure is small.
You get forever but nobody at all.
It don't come often, and it don't stay [A]long.
(Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh)
Chorus
But just remember on the [G]way home, (Oooh ooh [Bm]ooh)
That you don't ever have to [G]feel alone.
[G]Just stay on the [D]run; [G]get off the [D]grid.
[G]Hide yourself [D]out like you [A]know that I [D]did,
[G]And if you might [D]find that you're [G]running is [D]done,
[G]A little bit of [D]Heaven never [A]hurt no [D]one.
