August in Bethany

	  		E                     B             A 
With the sound of the ocean crashing  
                       
7:30 Friday evening  
     E           B        A      
Everything comes tumbling down  
                  E               B 
I choke back each tear that bleeds 
                   A                     
I'd rather rest forever in your arms  
           E              B      
I'd rather stay here than go  
                         A         
but I know that I should leave  
              (Start Riff 1)         
As I sit here helpless

Don't go

                                             played by a second guitar 
               B            A                until the end of the verse. 
I think of our time together   
                                              
Is it fading, am I dreaming  
     E         B          A        
Everything you said lives on  
              E         B    
I cherish our memories  
                    A                      
I want to kiss your tears away tonight  
             E           B        
It's hard to give up the one  
                        A        
You never thought you'd leave

You say as I walk out your door.
