INTRO: [G] [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus2]
[G]Me and Charlie boy used to go walking
[C]sittin' in the woods behind my [G]house
[C]When being lovers meant a [G]stolen kiss
And holding hands with nobody else a[D]round
[G]Charlie said he wanted to get married
[C]but we were only ten so we'd have to [G]wait
[C]He said we'd never let our love run [A]dry
Like so many do these days
CHORUS:
[C]So we treat our (your) love like a firefly
Like it only [C]gets [C]to [G]shine, for a little while
[C]Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top
And [C]run [D]like [G]hell to show it off
[F]Oh promises we made when we'd go [D]walkin'
That's just [F]me [D]and Charlie [G]talking
[G]Charlie always said he'd like to leave here
[C]turned eighteen and left our sleepy [G]town
[C]Letters came and went and I kept [G]waiting
For Charlie to come back and bring the life he'd [D]found
[G]Funny how time and distance change you
[C]the road you take don't always lead you [G]home
[C]You can start a love with good in[G]tentions
And then you look up and it's gone
CHORUS
E[G]ven now I sometimes think of Charlie
[C]How we thought we new it all back [G]then
[C]Now I'd give anything to [G]feel love from a child's heart again
