[D] [A]
[Bm] God bless the daylight, the sugary smell of [D] springtime, remembering when you [A] were mine.
I'm still suburban, [Bm] and every Thursday, I break those mountain [D] passes.
You skip your early [A] classes, and we learn how our [Bm] bodies work.
[F#m] [Bm] [F#m]
[E] [D] [A]
[Bm] God damn the black night, with all its foul [D] temptations, I've become what I always [A] hated when I was with [Bm] you.
We looked like giants, [B] in the back of my grey [D] subcompact, fumbling to make [A] contact as the others slept [B] inside.
And together [G] there, in a shot of floss, [A] the mountain air began to pass.
From every pane of [Bm] water, glass, and I held you [G] closer than anyone [A] would ever judge.

[G] You remember the J-A-M-C, and reading all out the letters.
I don't know about you, but I swear on my name, they could smell it on me.
I've never been too good with secrets.
[Em] [G]
Oh, together there, in a shroud of floss, the mountain air began to pass.
[C#] Through every [G] pane, and I held you closer.
You remember the J-A-M-C.
