E F#m D D or E F#m D5 D5 (You can also use power chords. But take note that I use E(major) even when using the power chords.

Verse 1

E F#m D There's a place off Ocean Avenue E Where I used to sit and talk with you F#m D We were both 16 and it felt so right E F#m D Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiiight E F#m D Staying up all ni-iiight

Chorus

E F#m D There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street E We would walk on the beach in our bare feet F#m D We were both 18 and it felt so right E F#m D Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiight E F#m D Staying up all ni-iight E F#m If I could find you now D Things would get better E F#m We could leave this town D And run forever E F#m I know some where, some how D We'll be together E F#m Let your waves crash down on me D And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah

Verse 2

(same as verse 1) Theres a piece of you that's here with me Its everywhere I go It's everything I see When I sleep I dream and it gets me by I can make believe that you're here tonight That you're here tonight
