When you're a kid, you think, I wouldn't mind being in a band, you know what I mean?
And to actually have it, it's [A] a pretty good thing, you know?
[E] When something [A] stands for nothing, [E] a [A] detached memory,
[E] this [A] one's about everything you don't think [E] about until you sleep.
[A] Yeah.
[E] And this [A] one's for nothing,
[E] and this [A] one's for fun,
[E] and this [A] one's about rock and roll and comic [Em] books and bubble gum.

[D] The who, [E] [A] who, who, who, who, [E] who, [A] who, who, who, who, who, who, who, [E] [A]
[E] [A]
[E] who, who, who, who.
We'll [A] each stay out for something, yeah, but none of it'll last,
unless [E] you, you [A] take the reins, take them from the night,
[E] push them [A] all right through the past,
[E] and this [A] one's for the silence [E] and [D] the questions [A] that it brings,
[E] and the [A] smell of time and the reverence, [F#] and the [A] possibilities.
