E F# B

Summer of 1978,

E F# B

My sister and I in the back seat just wait.

E F# B E

We pass the time by making lines in the seat that we can't cross,

F# B

A thin line like dental floss.

B G# B F#

She threw my new blue comb out the window, somewhere on I-70.

G# F#

Dad said, "I'm sorry, but we can't go back,"

E F#

We're never going back to get it.

B G#

It was the first comb I ever had.

B F#

Got it just that morning from my mom and my dad.

G# F# E

Light blue in color, I could never find another comb like that,

F#

big and fat...

E F# B

So tell me, have you seen my comb?

E F#

Last time I saw it, it was in her hands,

B

And then it was bouncing down the road.

E F#

It wasn't fancy, it wasn't brown,

G# B

But now it might be from lying on the ground.

E F# B

So tell me, have you seen my comb?

G# B E F#

G#

Driving down the road in September,

B

I was only five but I still remember,

E

Where the highway turns at the bottom of the hill,

F#

My parents both up front 'cause they loved each other still.

G#

Maybe just a comb made of plastic,

B

Or an action of a sibling lacking couth,

E

But something that was thrown out that window,

F# E F#

Was the last great symbol of my youth.

B

Have you seen my comb?

E F#

Last time I saw it, it was in her hands,

B

And then it was bouncing down the road.

E F#

It wasn't fancy, it wasn't brown,

G# B

But now it might be from lying on the ground.

E F# B

So tell me, have you seen my comb?
