C      Em
I wish the days were longer
                 Am             F
So we could have more time to relax
  G            C        Em
I wish we were younger
              Am              F
To relive the summers that we had

Fm        Em

C                 Em
Sent me a text at 4 pm
Am                 F  G
Making your way to Oregon
C                      Em
Left all your memories at the door
  Am                        F       G
I hope you find what you're looking for

[Chorus]
            F                G         C    Am
I hope it's better than it's been back home
    F                G                C              Am
The life you find provides you with a love for the unknown
    F                 G      C   E     Am
And though you may be miles away right now
F                G              C
When you need me there I'll be around

[Verse 2]
                      C       Em
And when we meet in December
               Am                  F
And laugh all about how much we've grown
G           C       Em
All for the better
                   Am             F    G
That you took some time away from home

C                     Em
Spending your days out in a field
Am                 F        G
Seeing the sun and moon for real
C                    Em
Meeting the bugs you thought were gross
Am                  F     G
Hoping this feeling never goes

[Chorus]
            F                G         C    Am
I hope it's better than it's been back home
    F                G                C              Am
The life you find provides you with a love for the unknown
    F                 G      C   E     Am
And though you may be miles away right now
F                G              C
When you need me there I'll be around

[Verse 3]
C                          Em
   I knew things they would change, you haven't been around
Am                              F                 G
   Some things aren't quite the same, you haven't been in town
C                       Em
   I wish we could play games just like we used to do
Am        F     G
   In school

       C                 Em
You're always the one to cheer me up
Am                  F      G
Never too mean when I fuck up
C                    Em
Part of me needs you to come home
Am               F           G
But until then I want you to know

[Chorus]
            F                G         C    Am
I hope it's better than it's been back home
    F                G                C              Am
The life you find provides you with a love for the unknown
    F                 G      C   E     Am
And though you may be miles away right now
F                G              C
When you need me there I'll be around

            F                G         C    Am
I hope it's better than it's been back home
    F                G                C              Am
The life you find provides you with a love for the unknown
    F                 G      C   E     Am
And though you may be miles away right now
F                G              C     G C
When you need me there I'll be around

[Outro]
C       Em
Jeremy, Jerem- it's not the same is it?
Am               F       G
