 Well I can see the street lights pass me by,
 Out  into the darkness  from the light.
 And you  grew up a dancer,  yes, I grew  up as  your friend.
 If I  get to Ohio,  hope I see  you dance again.
 
 Now I  can see the street  lights pass  me  by.
 Two  more hours and I  won't need these lights.
 And I  could hear you singing  through your window way  back when.
 If I  get to Ohio,  hope I hear  you sing again.
 But hey  hey summer rose,  did you wither  long ago?
 Did  you shed your peddles  like my teeth  upon this road?
 Or are  you walking barefoot down  your stairs,
 Spinning  records, red  rose in your hair?
 And do  you smile gently  while the rest  just make amends?
 If I  get to Ohio,  hope I see  you smile again.
 
 
 
 (Listen to the song to hear how Austin goes in and out with the his strumming)
 Well hey  hey summer rose,  did you wither  long ago?
 Did  you shed your peddles  like my teeth  upon this road,
 Where I  can see the sun  burn through  the clouds,
 and I  can feel this heater  burning out?
 And I  can think of everywhere  that I  have never been.
 If I  get to Ohio,  hope I never  leave again.
 But if I  get to Ohio,  hope I never  leave again.
 **TIP: When you're going from a C chord to a G and then an Am chord like when he
 sings "I grew up as your friend" in the beginning, you don't need to play the big E-
 string with the G chord. Instead, simply take your middle finger off the D-
 string and place it on the 2nd fret of the A-
 string when your going from a C chord to an Am chord. This transition is used in alot
 of songs, and is al so in this one at times.
