Am   F           C
While you were sleeping
Am F          C
I thought of you

Am
Oceans and distance
     F
And time went on
             C
As we were dreaming
Am
Praying the answers
          F
Will come in time
             C
To see us through

Chorus:
F                Dm
Summer's almost gone
                       C
And you're not coming home
                   Am
You're not coming home
                     F
But I'm still left alone
Dm               C
I'm still left alone

Now that we're apart
I, I realize

I missed the moon
Looking at the stars

Chorus:
F                Dm
Summer's almost gone
                       C
And you're not coming home
                   Am
You're not coming home
                     F
But I'm still left alone
Dm               C
I'm still left alone
Am               F
I'm still left alone
Dm               C
I'm still left alone

              C
And I can't stand tall
No I can't stand tall
When I lift my head
Everything just falls

F
I can't stand tall
      Dm
No I can't stand tall
        C
When I raise my head
          Am
My knees make me crawl

Chorus:
Summer's almost gone
And you're not coming home
And I heard that you moved on
But I'm still left alone (And I can't stand tall
No I can't stand tall)
I'm still left alone (When I raise my head
My knees make me crawl)
I'm still left alone (I can't stand tall
No I can't stand tall)
Oh (When I raise my head
My knees make me crawl)
