🎸 Intro:
F#F#
🎸 Verse 1:
F#F# BB
Hope'll set your eyes agleam
F#F# C#C#
Like four feet dangling in the stream
F#F# BB
But the Kingdom of God, it's a pressure machine
F#F# C#C#
Every step, gotta keep it clean
F#F# BB
A augmentedA mattress on a hardwood floor
F#F# C#C#
Who could ever ask for more?
F#F# BB
I'll get up and cut the grass
F#F# C#C#
Ain't nothing wrong with working class
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
I I don't remember the last time
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F BB
You asked how I was
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
Don't you feel the time slipping away?
G# minorG#m C#C#
It ain't funny at all
F#F# C#/F BB
It's gonna break your heart one day
🎸 Verse 2:
F#F# BB
Keep the debt cloud off the kids
F#F# C#C#
Only sunshine on their lids
F#F# BB
Jiminy Cricket and Power Wheels
F#F# C#C#
And memories of Happy Meals
F#F# BB
Sometimes I look at the stars
F#F# C#C#
And think about how small we are
F#F# BB
Sweating it out in the pressure machine
F#F# C#C#
Good till the last drop
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
Why don't you say little things?
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
Butterflies don't just dance on a string
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
It feels like you clipped all their wings
G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
And every year goes by faster than the one before
(F#F# D#mD#m C#/F BB)
(F#F# D#mD#m C#/F BB)
🎸 Verse 3:
F#F# BB
We've had that treadmill now for months
F#F# C#C#
I think she might've used it once
F#F# BB
If I shut my mouth and keep the peace
F#F# C#C#
She'll cook my eggs in bacon grease
F#F# BB
Life'll grow you a big red rose
F#F# C#C#
Then rip it from beneath your nose
F#F# BB
Run it through the pressure machine
F#F# C#C#
And spit you out a name tag memory
Final: G# minorG#m C#C# F#F# C#/F D#mD#m
