G
Remember when the days were long
    C
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
G

Didn't have a care in the world
C           D
With mommy and daddy standin' by
G
But "happily ever after" fails
C
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
G
The lawyers dwell on small details
Em    C     D
Since daddy had to fly


Em      Bm       Am7
But I know a place where we can go
Em      C        D
That's still untouched by men
Em      Bm      Am7
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
Em      C        D
And the tall grass wave in the wind
    G      D    C
Just lay your head back on the ground
Em      Bm      Am7
And let your hair fall all around me
G   D   C
Offer up your best defense
Em    Bm    Am7
But this is the end
C    D       G     Gsus2  Gmaj  Gsus2  Am7  Em/A  Em  D5/A  C  Cadd9  C  C
This is the end of the innocence


G
O' beautiful, for spacious skies
C
But now those skies are threatening
  G
They're beating plowshares into swords
   C       D
For this tired old man that we elected king
G
Armchair warriors often fail
      C
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
  G
The lawyers clean up all details
Em  C    D
Since daddy had to lie


Em      Bm       Am7
But I know a place where we can go
Em      C        D
And wash away this sin
Em      Bm      Am7
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
Em      C        D
And the tall grass wave in the wind
    G      D    C
Just lay your head back on the ground
Em      Bm      Am7
And let your hair spill all around me
G   D   C
Offer up your best defense
Em    Bm    Am7
But this is the end
C    D       G     Gsus2  Gmaj  Gsus2  Am7  Em/A  Em  D5/A  C  Cadd9  C  C
This is the end of the innocence



G
Who knows how long this will last
C
Now we've come so far, so fast
G
But, somewhere back there in the dust
C    D
That same small town in each of us
G
I need to remember this
C
So baby give me just one kiss
G
And let me take a long last look
Em   C   D
Before we say goodbye


    G      D    C
Just lay your head back on the ground
Em      Bm      Am7
And let your hair fall all around me
G   D   C
Offer up your best defense
Em    Bm    Am7
But this is the end
C    D       G     Gsus2  Gmaj  Gsus2  Am7  Em/A  Em  D5/A  C  Cadd9  C  C
This is the end of the innocence

      G5  Gsus2  Gmaj  Gsus2  Am7  Em/A  Em  D5/A  C  Cadd9  C  C  x2
