(Intro)
D Bm G D
D
Turn the bars into cars
Bm
And wait for the lights to change
G
And take shape of people we used to know
D
Until we grow less fond of knowing
D
And we can ride in the night
Bm
And discard all the facts on our backs
G
Remembering the thoughts that we thought
D
Since we got over our parents
D
And if we go where we go
Bm
And don't tell anyone where we're from
G
We can cut and paste the stars to our hearts
D
And understand their language
D
And we won't spit with our mouths
Bm
Or draw lines in the dirt with our heels
G
And every single day we'll just wait
D
And hope to see the next one
G Em
If we go down too easy my dear
G Em A
We'll still be the heart of envy of all our friends and peers
D
So I get home to my home
Bm
The thoughts are in my head
G
And my bed is full of things I left
D
When I left earlier
D
And the light through the blinds
Bm
And through the windowpane in the lane
G
Where the fire is getting cold
D
For they have burned all of their belongings
D
And up the stairs there's a pair
Bm
Who like to be made sure
G
That they were everything they are
D
For they are sadly mistaken
D
Now I forget how we met
Bm
Those days have all passed
G
Now the cast is filing to the stage
D
In a rage and taking their places
G Em
If we go down too easy my dear
G Em A
We'll still be the heart of envy of all our peers and friends my dear
Bm G D
To them we'll be has-beens
Bm G D
To them be rogue waves
Bm G D
To them be lost trains
A
Just posers posing
Bm G D
We'll eat with our eyes
Bm G D
And weep our goodbyes
Bm G D
And if that's what it takes
A (hold) G
We'll both drink the Kool-Aid again
G D
'Til we've forgotten where our hearts have been
D G
'Til we've forgotten where our hearts have been
G D
