F
Say say what you want just don't say
that you're leaving
I hope this summer breeze will
last more than a season
          Dm
Will you write to me? In time we'll see
A#
Maybe spend your whole life with me

      F
We've packed our suitcases we've
shut off all the windows
Hold tight soon you and I flow
anywhere the wind blows
        Dm
So make life to me, hold tight to me
A#
Stay awake the whole night with me

Chorus:
                    A#
Can I keep you as a souvenir?
      Dm
Can I take your shirt to dry my tears?
      F
Can I meet you here this time next year?
C                   A#
Can I keep you as a souvenir?
         Dm
We could take a chance and disappear
          F
We could runaway get out of here
C                   A#
Can I keep you as a souvenir?
     Dm
Wish you were here

I taste salt in the air and
in your sweater that I sleep in
I dream of us riding bikes
at sunset by the ocean
Those were giddy days, lazy days
Sipping rosé, time to waste
(Sipping rosé, time to waste)

Chorus

F
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
                A#
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Souve-souvenir
Dm
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
     A#
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

         Dm                A#
And if I leave here you're coming with me
       Dm             A#
If you leave here I'm going with you

Chorus
