Verse: 
D            G                 A 
  Underspent   and too young, too 
G          Bm      D                G 
I stumbled onto a, a picture of you 
                 A 
You wild bitter tale,  
     G 
All cherry oak and tears 
        Bm              D   G 
As the branches looked in 
               A       G             
The summer is done and we are too, dear 
F#m             D   G 
Pull back the drape 
                         A 
And let the silent light in 
 G                     A 
Soon, I'll be on that highway 



     D 
And damn  
       G               Bm 
This stretch of ninety-nine 
      A             Em    
That takes so many lives 
 G                    D 
One of them was mine 

              G          Bm 
Hand me that lil wallet picture 
 A               Em             G     
Nineteen eighty five, one more time  



Verse: 
      D                  G 
The lights on the street 
                        A 
And I'd walk to you at night 
     G 
Were so blindly lit 
                 Bm            D     G 
Yeah, there were four little flames 
                A                   
His, mine, and yours 
         G 
And the torch in the attic 
F#m          D   G 
  I woke up late 
                 A 
And kissed you awake 
        G 
As you packed up your load 
          F#m       D    G 
There was one last look 
                      A 
And the U-haul broke free 
        
And now the ditches are  
  G               A 
Flooded over the back roads 



     D 
And damn  
        G               Bm   
This stretch of ninety-nine 
      A             Em 
That takes so many lives 
       G                    D 
Yeah, one of them was mine 

              G         Bm 
Hand me that lil wallet picture 
 A               Em             G     
Nineteen eighty five, one more time
