G(2nd octave)                Bm7/F#
Remember last summer when we had the chance

to find each other start making romance
       G(2nd octave)          Bm7/F#
But it didn't come off so you found another
            Am7/E                Am/D
Without one hand of a clock what good is the other

Notes: Arranged by NRBQ with contrasting chords for electric clavinet. To
reconcile for solo guitar, add D chord at last beat of verse, and instead
of Cadd13 to C in the chorus, try C6add9 (8x7755) to Cadd13 (875555). A
simplified  arrangement for solo guitar accompaniment in the 1st octave
would be: Verse- G, Bm, Am7, Am/D (xx0210), G, Bm, Am7, Am/D to D (on last
 beat), Chorus- C6add9 (x3x230), C, etc.
