A D
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking, sittin'
A
in the woods behind my house
D A
When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and
E
holdin hands with nobody else around
A D
Charlie said he wanted to get married, but we
A
were only ten so we had to wait
D A
He said we'd never let our love run dry like so
many do these days
CHORUS:
D
So we treat our love like a firefly, like it
D E A
only gets to shine, for a little while
D
Catch it in a mason jar with wholes in the
D E A
top and run like hell to show it off
G E
Oh promises were made when we'd go walkin,
G E A
thats just me and Charlie talkin
A
Charlie always said he'd have to leave here,
D A
turned eighteen and left our sleepy town
D A
Letters came and went and I kept waiting for
Charlie to come back and bring the life he'd
E
found
A
Funny how time and distance can change you,
D A
the road you take dont always lead you home
D A
You can start a love with good intentions and
then you look up and its gone
CHORUS
