Ya Can't Stay Here Lyrics And Chords By Derek Ryan
Derek uses G chord shapes but starts out capo 1, so actually in Ab. He
then sneakily moves the capo to 2, continuing to use the G shapes but
actually playing in A. Then he moves capo to 3, again using G shapes
but now playing in Bb. Sent to this site by David Arstall.
All chords given are relative to the capo remaining at fret 1

SMALL TOWN SUMMER:

The first time, I saw [F#m]your eyes shimmer,[D],
Through the shadows of a [E]ferris wheel.
My [A]new guitar in your [F#m]dad's old [Bm]car,
I [D]didn't think we'd [E]go so far.
[A]Drifted out of [E]sight.
(chorus)
We were[D] wild, we were strong,
We were [A]young, we were wrong,
[D]Love was just something to [A]do.
We had [D]fears, we had dreams,
We were [A]somewhere between,
