Intro: B-C#m-Ebm-E-

Blow it off let’s stay
here just for the day

Verse 1:
Phone ring right
hand reach out to
turn off the sound
Long week, year round
no use no other way out
What if why not
just for once
pull down the shades
and spend the day in the
dark turn up the stereo
F#(Hold)
and turn back the
E(Hold)
clock to the start

Chorus 1:
I remember doing
nothing at all
waking up with you
with no where to go
I remember when
we used to say
blow it off let’s stay
here just for the day

Verse 3:
Dead lines headlines no
time too late to rewind
why don’t we
work to forget
forever falling further
deeper into debt
remember everything you
F#(hold) E(hold)
felt on the night that we met

Chorus 2:
I remember doing nothing
at all on the corner
talking no where to go
I remember when
we used to say
F# F#(Hold)
blow it off let’s stay
here just for the day
I remember
I remember you
I remember
I remember you

Interlude: B-C#m-Ebm-E-

Verse 3:
I hope maybe one day
you’ll say, “okay let’s go
Let’s just get away
I’ll drive, you talk
get lost where ever we want
Why don’t we head to the
coast to try to find the
places we used to go
forget it all and say
F#(hold) E(Hold)
goodbye to the life
that we know”

Chorus 3:
I remember doing nothing
at all on our own all
night with nowhere to go
I remember when
we used to say
F# F#(Hold)
blow it off let’s stay
here just for the day
I remember
I remember you
I remember
G#m F# B E B F# B(hold)
I remember you
