Verse 1:
Bb majorBb
Daylight streaming,
BbmBbm
On my face,

Thunder crashing,

Lightning flashing,

Better stay in bed.

But look who's laughing now,

Guess I'll laugh until I choke.

Cars crashing,

Franklin Avenue,

Waiting for the dramatic save,
DmDm
Nothing else to do.

Waiting for that same old feeling.
