Verse 1:
             C
I miss you, man
       F                G   C
Before anyone knew our name
                        F
We had the fire, had desire
              G           C
But what went wrong then?
                        F            G    C
It seemed so big in the eye of our storm
                                F         G      C
We couldn't have been further away from unknown
                   F                G          C
Who did we become?   Amen, we were meant to be
                     F       G   C
Was that really your   destiny?
                       F
Was that really your dream?
            G         C                       F       G   C
I don't really feel anyone else came close to how we see
                   F            G   C
We had the prize before our eyes
                                F   G   C
But we already had it all anyway
                                F                     G   C
Driving 'round for hours on end   with the music on loud
                                 F                     G   C
Driving round in a scrapyard van   with the music on loud
                                 F                  G   C
I've laughed and cried, I've confessed, and I've lied
                           F             G   C
We built this thing from a dead-end street
                               F        G              C   F   G
And now I'm looking around for you to see, I miss you, man

Chorus:
       C                    F                G
Before anyone knew our name   we had the fire
       C                    F              G
Before anyone knew our name   we had desire
       C                    F   G
Before anyone knew our name
            C   F   G
I miss you, man

Verse 2:
    C                      F              G
The street's so quiet now, rundown and heavy
     C                  F                G   C
It used to be alive, swimming pools of cries
                                    F               G
Yeah, we said our sorries, yeah, we made our make-ups
     C                                     F   G   C
But that don't make up for what's missing now
                           F            G   C
We built this thing from a dead-end street
                                          F             G   C
You couldn't drive through, just take the bus or just meet
                             F          G   C
The mountaintops, they don't seem so high
                                F         G   C
The trees I climbed, they don't seem so high
                            F                   G
I take my kids to see the world where we played
            C   F   G
I miss you, man

Chorus:
       C                    F                G
Before anyone knew our name   we had the fire
       C                    F              G
Before anyone knew our name   we had desire
       C                    F   G
Before anyone knew our name
            C   F   G
I miss you, man
       C                    F                G
Before anyone knew our name   we had the fire
       C                    F              G
Before anyone knew our name   we had desire
       C                    F   G
Before anyone knew our name
            C   F   G
I miss you, man
