[C] Just imagine the roads and [G] the fog, the golden leaves falling [C] on the mold on [G] the logs, [Em] the hopes and the gods and the bombs.
We set fire to the mold and beyond, and the dawn [C] broke out like it spent a night in Alcatraz.
We talking all night about second tries and [Em] Cadillacs.
We grabbed the axe and buried it.
We found shelter in the woods and found savage acts hilarious.
[G] The areas, the patience, the habits.
Now seek shelter in the basements and the attics and packets of [Em] rookie cards and looky-loos galore.
Crawled away from the moody blues and the war.
We swore we'd [C] never leave each other, never sleep [G] again,
until a horde of lovers come to fortify the need in us, [Em] the deepest end of the pool.
Cheaters, sluts, ghouls, they'll feed you to the mutts and the fools.
We [C] weren't accustomed to the mistrust.
We were just missing school, missing the bus, like we missed the mistrust.
And [Em] it's a must, it's us and just us and what's what, and it kills me to think it's all gone, it's just dust [C] in the window.
Pain where my first kiss came through.
In the middle of a full moon, fiddled [Em] with the wool plumes covering our eyes.
It's like every new move was a surprise.
Now we're [C] stepping into every room with a prize.
It's like a weapon [Em] that's abused for your pride, and the last place you want to hide, the rat race was on the side.
High on life, and low on the totem pole, [C] we ain't on strike.
We're alive [Em] like a lie that's been told to all ears.
And we're holding all tears back in, and letting the fears [G] back in.
Fall away, fall away from you.
