A Lifetime Better Than Ezra
Better Than Ezra - A Lifetime
Intro: F,C,G x2
(F,C,G)
Allie woke up 8AM, graduation day.
Got into a car, and crashed along the way.
When we arrived late to the wake, stole the urn while they looked away,
And drove to the beach cause I knew you'd want it that way
And [Dm]you were standing on the hood of the ca[C]r
Sin[F]ging out loud when the sun [G]came up.
Chorus:
---------
F,C,G
And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
---------
And [Dm]three and a half min[C]utes[F]
[G]Felt like a lifetime
F,C,G F,C,G
It felt like a lifetime
(F,C,G)
And you move like water, I could drown in you
And I fell so deep once, till you pulled me through
You would tell me
"[Dm]No one is allowed to be so prou[C]d
[F]They never reach out when they're [G]giving up."
Chorus
(Go back and forth between F and C, listen to the recording)
Are you sitting in the lights? Or combing your hair again,
And talking in rhymes? Are you sitting in the lights?
(F,C,G)
When I got home, heard the phone, your parents had arrived.
And your dad set his jaw, your mom just smiled and sighed.
But they left soon and I went to my room.
Played that disc that you'd given me
And I shut my eyes, swear I could hear the sea.
When [Dm]we were standing on the hood of your ca[C]r
[F]Singing out loud when the [G]sun came up.
Chorus
Dm C,F,G
And three and a half minutes,
Dm C,F
Three and a half minutes,
[G]Felt like a lifetime.
