[Em] [G] [C] [C] [Em] [G] [C] [C]
When I was [Em]15 in my [G]parents’ house
I met a [C]good girl when school got out
And I was [Em]too scared to [G]tell her how
I loved her [C]still, well I loved her [Em]still, I loved her [G]still,
I loved her [C]still, well we [Em]grew up and we [G]both moved out
We went to [C]different schools in different towns
And is it [Em]too late to [G]tell you now
I loved you [C]still, well I [Em]loved you still, I [G]loved you still,
I loved you [C]still


[Em]Mistakes were [G]made when I was younger, [C]and it’s too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]And there are [G]times that I wonder, [C]is it too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]Summer, [G]Summer [C]


[Em] [G] [C]
Well I [Em]think back every [G]now and then, so I can [C]sit back and just pretend
That when you [Em]call me [G]I will, tell you how I [C]feel
I never [Em]will, I never [G]will, I love you [C]still
I love you [Em]still, I love you [G]still, I love you [C]still


[Em]Mistakes were [G]made when I was younger, [C]and it’s too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]And there are [G]times that I wonder, [C]is it too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]Summer, [G]Summer [C]


[Em] [G] [C]
[Am]And every [C]night before I [G]sleep [D]
[Am]I like to [C]think you think of [G]me [D]
[Am]And every [C]night before I [G]sleep [D]
[Am]I like to [C]think you think of
I think that we should think of, and do you ever think of..


[Em]Mistakes were [G]made when I was younger, [C]and it’s too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]And there are [G]times that I wonder, [C]is it too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]Mistakes were [G]made when I was younger, [C]and it’s too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
[Em]And there are [G]times that I wonder, [C]is it too late too discover
[Em]Love at the [G]end of the summer, [C]at the end of the summer
