Intro
D A  D G  D A  D G  x 2

D A  D G  D A  D  D 

D                     F#m7                        G7M
Barren stares as they light up the screen bearing teardrops that shatter in
 
Em7                F#m7        G7M            Asus     A
slow motion no...  vocaine our brains and we're out like lights. And 

D              F#m7                G7M              Em7
as I'm growing older I'm bored I remember when misery thrilled me much more

F#m7                 G7M              Asus   A
  when I___ can't___ relax and I'd like to go back

CHORUS
            Em7  A6  Em7  A
but that's gone...              ...yeah that's 

Em7           D/F#           G7M
gone turn a - round turn the volume down we're counting the days down

A      D              E         A
to the day when we'll live in a video, I'll be

F#m                 A              D
stonefaced and pale you'll pout in stereo

F#m7        G7M       A          D
twenty four hours every day of the year

F#m7     G7M        Asus                      D
oh, what fun, I can't wait 'til the future gets here

D A  D G  D A  D G

D                 F#m7                      G7M
Closing in on the pain and the torture he's slamming the door like it's 

Em7                      F#m7                G7M            Asus     A
something to strive for, the girl tearing curtains down looks funny as hell

        D                        F#m7                     G7M
and of, sense of humor can there be any doubt. Yeah, that natural selection

    Em7             F#m7  G7M                   Asus     A
has weeded it out?          Just to keep me from laughing out loud

CHORUS

As before

F#m7     G7M        Asus                      Bm
oh, what fun, I can't wait 'til the future gets here

Bm A/C#  D  D  Bm  Bm  G7M  G7M  A D  E A  F#m7 G7M

A D  F#m7 G  A D  F#m7 G  Asus  D A  D G  D G

                                                   Well, I've

D    A        D               G           D         A
seen some old friends sort of die or just turn into whatever 

D                G        D AD               G              D     A
must have been inside them.    Whatever all of us had then in common grew up

D          Em7   F#m7          G7M             Bm7
  and left home       we don't think that way no more

Em7          F#m7           G7M
   turn around  turn the volume down, we're counting the days down...
