Chords with lyrics

Capo 4
Standard Tuning

C majorC E MajorE Fmaj7/C DmDm x4

C majorC         E MajorE
The crowd began to wave
     Fmaj7/C DmDm
From the freeway overpass
C majorC        E MajorE
We joined the parade
Fmaj7/C     DmDm
right behind the marching band
C majorC
And You said
E MajorE         Fmaj7/C      DmDm
"Wave back, cause these are the best days of your life."
C majorC
And I said
E MajorE        Fmaj7/C     DmDm
"I know, I can't feel anything"

  G+G  G+G     A minorAm
And up, up on the Ferris wheel
C majorC     G+G    G+G    A minorAm
I can see L.A. and all the freeways
C majorC       G+G
I can see your face
A minorAm
so close to me
C majorC         G+G
And I can dream my dreams

And light the night
A minorAm       Fmaj7/C
like a drive in movie screen
(ya know....)

C majorC E MajorE Fmaj7/C DmDm x2

   C majorC     E MajorE
On a hot summer day
  Fmaj7/C    DmDm
We laughed in the Polaroid
C majorC        E MajorE
Counted all the ways,
  Fmaj7/C      DmDm
To slow down our time machine
C majorC     E MajorE    Fmaj7/C
And in my mind all I could
     DmDm
think was that love is war
C majorC    E MajorE         Fmaj7/C    DmDm
And you know I'd surrender anything

  G+G  G+G     A minorAm
And up, up on the Ferris wheel
C majorC     G+G    G+G    A minorAm
I can see L.A. and all the freeways
C majorC       G+G
I can see your face
A minorAm
so close to me
C majorC         G+G
And I can dream my dreams

And light the night
A minorAm       Fmaj7/C
like a drive in movie screen

E MajorE             Fmaj7/C   DmDm
Oh no, I don't want to be another

scar on a bar stool
in East Los Angeles.

C majorC E MajorE Fmaj7/C DmDm x4
