[D] Kids [G]
are driving [Em] Saturday [D]
afternoon, just pass me by.
[G]
I'm just savoring [D]
familiar sights.
[G]
We shared some history, [D]
this town and I.
[G]
And I [A] can't stop that long [F#m]
forgotten feeling [G] of hurt.
Time to book [A] a room to stay [D]
tonight.
[G]
Number one is to find some friends to [D] say, you're doing well.
[G]
After all [D] this time you boys look just the same.
[G]
Number two is the happy hour [D] at one of two hotels.
[G]
Settling [A] to play, do [D] you remember so [G] and so?
Oh, and number three [A] is never [D] say your name.
Oh, [G] the flame trees [A] will blind the winter [Em]
dry.
And [G] there's nothing else [A] can set fire to [D] this town.
There's [G] no change, there's [A] no place.
[Bm] Everything in this [D] place just makes it [G]
harder to [A] believe.
That she [D] won't be around.
But all [G] [D] who needs that sentimental bullshit anyway.
Takes more than just a memory to make me cry.
And [G] I'm happy just to sit at a [D] table with all its friends.
See which one of us can tell the biggest lies.
And [G] there's a girl just falling in love with a beaten old [D] stand.
With [G] a young love factory out of work.
And just [D]
holding on and [G]
wondering if [F#m] he'll go or if [A] he'll stay.
[A#] Do you [F] remember?
Nothing [A#] stopped us on [F] the field in our [C] day.
[D]
Oh, [G] those flame trees [A] will blind the winter [Em] dry.
