Intro chords

x4

Seven times I told you

Seven times in one day

There must be something now we

can do about it

So is it maybe, is it

can be or never

 In the summertime, you're hard to find

You had a little something that you wanted to tell me about

I'll be around, I'm available anytime

Never together, it will never get better

In the summertime, you're hard to find

Chorus

Everyone should grow up with a Big Brother

 Everyone should grow up with a real Dad

 It can only get better

All we gotta do is stick together

x2

Seven times I told you

But ten times it will take

I'm like a hurricane

 Forgive me my mistakes

Oh oh no, I've got no reference

 I'm not holding the key

 Guess I just want someone to feel sorry for me

And when you travel around and you talk to people

I'm disappearing in a hole in the ground

I hear they call you the girl who knows everything

Listen to them then, forget about me

Chorus

Everyone should grow up with a Big Brother

 Everyone should grow up with a real Dad

 It can only get better

All we gotta do is stick together

(Repeat Chorus)

(!-NB! This next section contains no hearable guitar playing,

but you can palm-mute the same chords as in the verse-!)

When you did say something, I heard nothing

That was on your mind, there was no one listening

You gave up trying, cos I was rejecting

Never look you in the eye, never connecting

x2

 It can only get better

All we gotta do is stick together

Chorus

Everyone should grow up with a Big Brother

 Everyone should grow up with a real Dad

 It can only get better

All we gotta do is stick together
