Fifteen Summers

{clean jangly electric guitar

chord progressions} {distant school bell ringing,

fades into drums} {mid-tempo rock groove starts} Torn up notebooks in the

hall

Sign our names on the common wall

No more ties and no more bells

Just the secrets we won't tell

{lightly overdriven guitar rhythm} And we ran out of those gates so

fast

Thinking that the sun would always last

(yeah) {snare drum building up tension}

But year nine is officially dead

Got those long hot days ahead

Then the autumn brings the heavy weight

Standing at a brand new gate (oh-oh-oh) {loud crash cymbal,

full driving rock chorus}

July was sweet, we stayed up late

August came with a changing state

Now the uniforms feel a little tight

Thinking 'bout the future in the night

{warm bass-driven groove} We aren't the young ones anymore

Kicking round the hallway floor Year ten is knocking at the door

(here it comes) {guitars building

up with

fuzz} But year nine is officially dead

Got those long hot days ahead

Then the autumn brings the heavy weight

Standing at a brand new gate (oh-oh-oh) {full band explosion,

maximum energy}

Goodbye July, hello September

(yeah) {guitar solo starts with classic indie bends} {instruments slow down gradually

and fade out}
