GBm
Indian summer, how much more can I take, I'm begging for the heat to break
EmBmG
My throat is parched, my skin is red, fan blowing on my face in a sweat soaked bed
Bm
Fall is a daydream from when I was young
Em
Backpacks, bonfires, cool in the sun
D
Crickets and kisses beneath the moon, sneaking upstairs to my bedroom
D
If I could take back just one thing, I'd rewind to the last day of spring
D
You held my hand, you squeezed it hard, we walked until the streets got dark
D
Gave me some new book to read, saying, "I hope you find what you need"
Em
And just like that we're the broken hearted
DGDGBm
Just like that, my fever started
[Chorus]
GDGD
And the green grass turned to sand, the sky filled with a haze
GBm
We thought we wanted freedom but what we got were these dog days
GDGD
And our lonely hearts are lazy, sipping a strangers salty kiss
GBmD
Begging for a body, we'll take anything we can get
[Verse 2]
D
Labour day weekend, 90 degrees, a bottle of beer between my knees
EmD
A smoke, a sigh, a sideways glance, he's not the type to ask me to dance
GBm
Not the type to hold my hand but he once played in some famous band
EmD
An empty pool, we both take a dive, we leave that party for a drive
[Chorus]
GDGD
But his hands are like sandpaper, his eyes are dark and dull
GBm
Months of dehydration have really taken their toll
GDGD
And our tangled torsos tighten as we're moving out and in
GDBbBm
He leaves before the traffic and I'm burning up again
[Bridges]
BbBm
And I'm angry when he leaves me, I love, they love me not
BbBmBbBm
Popsicle to my temples, I'm so fucking hot
BbBmBbBm
And I'm frustrated forever about the air that hangs around
BbBmGD
Wafting around my apartment, I can't cool down
[Outro]
EmDGDEmDGDEmDBmBm
Indian summer, how much more can I take
D
Just waiting for the heat to break
