πΈ Intro:
D Em C Am Bm Em ( x2 )
πΈ Verse :
D Em C Am Bm Em
On the back end of a growth spurt
D Em C Am Bm Em
His red pants looked a little short
D Em C Am Bm Em
Telling me where and how his legs hurt
D Em C Am Bm Em
As we were walking out the door
D Em C Am Bm Em
I used to hate getting up early
D Em C Am Bm Em
Now I try not to make a fuss
D Em C Am Bm Em
My wife leaves for work at 7:30
D Em C Am Bm Em
And our kid never liked the bus
πΈ Refrain:
F7
Getting the sequence in line
Em
Trying to gather my thoughts
Edim
In the interest of time
D Em C Am Bm Em
As if we know what it wants
πΈ Interlude:
D Em C Am Bm Em
πΈ Verse :
D Em C Am Bm Em
I found the structure of an echo
D Em C Am Bm Em
Beneath the surface of a pool
D Em C Am Bm Em
All of the X's and all the zeros
D Em C Am Bm Em
The way a memory comes unspooled
D Em C Am Bm Em
Maybe time moves in more directions
D Em C Am Bm Em
In any moment of the day
D Em C Am Bm Em
All the contractions and extensions
D Em C Am Bm Em
In all the messes that we make
πΈ Refrain:
F7
Getting the sequence in line
Em
Trying to gather my thoughts
Edim
In the interest of time
D Em C Am Bm Em
As if we know what it wants
πΈ Interlude:
D Em C Am Bm Em
πΈ Verse :
D Em C Am Bm Em
He threw his backpack around his shoulders
D Em C Am Bm Em
Before he ran off to join his friends
D Em C Am Bm Em
He said "Love you Dad, see you later"
