Verse 1:
C F#
I read the paper just the other day
C F#
About a buddy of mine who headed to an early grave
C
They say he went in his sleep
F#
With a smile on his face
Am
Bet he was dreaming about those better days
C
When the crash of the drums
F#
Hit like the waves on a beach
C F#
That cheap bass and guitar and our wildest dreams
Dm
We were searching for a savior like anybody else
C F#
Trying to save ourselves from ourselves
Chorus:
C F#
Nah-nah-nah, Just a garage band
C
We weren't alive
F#
We were livin' in Garageland
Verse 2:
C F#
Our parents all held jobs but we had other plans
C
We acted like our heroes
F#
They just didn't understand
Dm F#
We were never afraid to fall
C
It was us and those four walls
Chorus:
C F#
Nah-nah-nah, Just a garage band
C
We weren't alive
F#
We were livin' in Garageland
Verse 3:
Am F#
Nothing else felt so right
C
Just us, those guitars
Am
And a Saturday night
Chorus:
C F#
Nah-nah-nah, Just a garage band
C
We weren't alive
F#
We were livin' in Garageland
C F#
Nah-nah-nah, Just a garage band
C
We weren't alive
F#
We were livin' in Garageland
Outro:
Am F#
Nothing else felt so right
C
Just us, those guitars
Am
And a Saturday night
