[D] [G] Do you see anything?
Hold [D] on.

Holy shit, dude!
This is awesome!
You gotta come in here.
[G] You know, uh, I'm good over here.
[C] I think I'll stay back.
Dude, [Ab] who do you think recorded [Gm] in this place?
I don't know, but by the smell of it, I'm guessing REM.
Heh, [D] totally.
[C] I don't know, man.
[Em] I think we should leave.
This place is like scary with [E] a capital S.
[Gb]
Whoa.
[G]
[Dm] Oh, no, that's a rat.
I'll see you later, man.
[Abm] [G] [D]
[G]
[Gm] [F] Pussy.
Dude, that was great.
That was great.
Let's do [B] another one, man.
Appetite for destruction, blowing us all away.
Poison looking so damn good, I wondered if I was gay.
White snake making us bang our heads [G] in the [B] still of the freaking day.
Covered hell banging, tarni-cataying, and the world all felt just right.
[E] 1987, [Abm] [Db] [B] I never wanna leave you.
[Eb] [E] When you told me I was in [Ebm] my [B] prime, why didn't I believe you?
[A] And the music [Ab] scene will never [E] be [B] the same.
[A] When I didn't [Ab] realize the [E] things, [G] forget [Gb] their name.
[B] Talking [Abm] antlers were young and hot, [G] they were warriors in a [B] dream.
I couldn't [Abm] understand the loudness, there stood [G] a man that [B] God could scream.
Harvey was on [Abm] the crazy [G] train, biting heads [B] off bears.
It was long [Abm] before the YouTube [G] trolls and this bullshit snappy [B] chat.
[E] 1987, [Abm]
[B] you're always gonna be the [E] best.
But first you lost the young cocaine [B] of a 19-year-old [E] breast.
[A] And the kids these days [Ab] will [E] never [B] understand
[A] what it's like to [Abm] play an [E] instrument and be [Gb] in a band.
[Abm]
[E]
[Abm] [E]
[Abm]
[E] [Dbm] [Abm]
[A]
[E] Growing out, [Dbm] getting high, we [B] was cranking scorpions and frees.
[A] Everyone in [Em] leather, there never was a doubt.
[Dbm] In any of our minds, [B] pretty soon, Dave and Eddie were getting [A] back together.
[N]
[E] 1987, [Abm] [B] did we go astray?
[E] Back then the friends we [B] had were having some every [A] day.
No one was [Ab] told [E] for [E] the things that [Gb] they said.
[E] 1987, [Abm] [B] we'll forever be the [Eb] year.
[E] Guys were more realistic [B] than girls, no one seemed to care.
[A] And the music that [Abm] we worship will [B]
[A] be after [Abm] all our [E] heavy metal heroes [Gb] after.
Thank you.
