D            F#m            Bm             F#m
lying by the lake in August rolling in the leaves
D           F#m    G    A (The A is optional)
down by the waters edge
D               F#m            Bm      F#m
sitting in your mothers garden smoking lebanese
D           F#m    G     A
beneath the privet hedge


A*           D                    F#m
and though I thought I caught the warmth behind your smile
D            F#m  G      A
I could have been deceived
D           F#m        Bm      G
but with my tear washed eyelashes
D             G       D
I should have been believed


D               F#m     Bm                   D
and it would be alright now we have said goodbye
D              F#m  Bm       G
but you didn't even touch my lips
D              G    D
but you didn't even try


D                    F#m                 Bm             F#m
we walked across the fields of Berkshire resting in the hay
D           F#m    G    A
and making daisy chains
D                    F#m          Bm             F#m
out along the streams and rivers spread across the way
D                F#m    G    A
and swelled with recent rains


D                    F#m
stepping home a little sadly
Bm                   F#m
slipping through the trees
D           F#m     G
much slower than we came
D            F#m    Bm         G
till getting home I kissed you once
D            G        D
and you just spoke my name


D               F#m     Bm
and it would be alright now we have said goodbye
D              F#m  Bm       G
but you didn't even touch my lips
D              G     D
but you didn't even try
