[F#] [G#m] Do [B]
[F#] [E] you [G#] [E] remember [B]
95?
[F#] How good [G#] it felt to [B] be alive
[F#] When the world [G#] [B] was small

I've [F#] [G#m] [B]
[F#] [G#m] [B]
[F#] got pictures [G#m] on my [B] walls of all the things that [F#] I think [G#] will [G#m] bring me [B] back my sanity
[F#] Like Daddy [G#] and my [B] Rosie
Like [F#] the ocean [G#m] and the virgin [B]

Or all my [F#] mistakes, not from the [B] world in its [C#] dark red
