Verse 1:
B7 E
We took the freeway out of town
B7 E
We found a place to settle down
B7 G# C#m E7
We bought a driveway and a swingset and a dog
Amaj7
You got your very own bathroom
Am7
I got my very own workshop in the basement
E G# C#m A
We sit around staring at the wall-to-wall
E G# C#m A
Take field trips to our favorite mall
E G# C#m A F#m B7
Waiting for the day when all the kids grow up and leave us here
Chorus:
E
If you need me
B7
I'll be downstairs
E
With the shop vac
A E
You can call but I probably won't hear you
F#m B7sus4
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
B7
(for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on)
E
But you'll be OK
B7
Cause you'll be upstairs
E
With the TV
A E
You can cry and I probably won't hear you
F#m B7 E A E
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
Verse 2:
B7 E
We hung a flag above the door
B7 E
Checked out the gourmet grocery store
B7 G# C#m E7
I bought a mower I can ride around the yard
Amaj7
But we haven't got real friends
Am7
And now even the fake ones have stopped calling
E G# C#m A
Maybe if you forget to hide the keys
E G# C#m A
I'll take a ride to Applebee's
E G# C#m A F#m B7
I'll come home drunk on daiquiris and throw up on the neighbor's lawn

If you need me

I'll be downstairs

I like the Starbucks here that's better than the other one

Verse 3:
B7 E
And when it's time to go to bed
B7 E
I'm still awake inside my head
B7 G# C#m E7
I'm floating up above the house and looking down
Amaj7
I guess I gotta go back there
Am7
I guess there never was any other answer
E G# C#m A
And as the freeway hums the cars go by
E G# C#m A
The headlights roll across the sky
E G# C#m A F#m B7
Many miles away but I can see them speeding through the dark

If you need me

I'll be downstairs
E
With the shop vac

With the TV
A E
You can cry and I probably won't hear you
