Tabbed by Joe Fairburn 
Capo 6th
 
When playing the D chords in the verses try play a major bar on the 11th fret it sounds
if you play it right and leave the 1st string open whilst playing.
 
When you get to the bridge he is picking the first second and third strings after he
the bass note that is provided (e.g. D bass note = A/D)
Have fun it’s a great song!
 
Verse 1
Bm 			 A			      	 D
If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house and pour it
A
loose through your garden
Bm 			 		   A			    D
So the hinges on your windows would rust and colour like the boats pulled up on the
A
sand for the summer
Em					    D				     A
And your sweet clean clothes would go stiff on the line and there’d be sand in your
	        Em
pockets and nothing in your mind
 
 
But every year it gets a little bit harder to get back the feeling of when we were 15
 
And we could jump in the river upstream and let the current carry us to the beginning
 
where the river me the sea again
 
And all our days were a sun drenched haze while the salt spray crusted on the window
 
Panes
 
Chorus
D
We should be living like we lived in that summer
F#m
I wanna live like we live in the summer
 
Verse 2
And I’ll remember that summer as the right one the storms make the pavement steam
 
like a kettle
 
And our first goodbyes always seemed like hours in the car park in between my house
 
and yours
 
And if the summer was a song we might sing forever then the winter holds a bite we’d
 
never felt before
 
Chorus
We should be living like we lived in that summer
 
I wanna live like we live in the summer
 
Bridge
A/A		         A/D		A/F#        A/G
   A/D same for next phrase
But time, is like the ocean, you can only hold a little in your hands
 
So we swim, before we’re broken, before our bones become black coral in the sand
 
Chorus
We should live like we lived in that summer
 
I wanna live like we live in the summer
 
We should live like we lived in that summer
 
I wanna live like we live in the summer
 
We should live like we lived in that summer
 
I wanna live like we live in the summer
 
 
Outro
If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it out over to your house and pour it
 
loose through your garden
