         Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)      F (133211@1)   in a tree, on a tire, in 85?

           Am (x02210@1)        C (x32010@1)           F (133211@1)   on the way between hate and that sunday fire
F (133211@1)   (and that sunday fire)

C (x32010@1)
Am (x02210@1)            F (133211@1)   you look so serious

         Am (x02210@1)   F (133211@1)    C (x32010@1)   this simple friday night
                 Am (x02210@1)      F (133211@1)  C (x32010@1)   where you're loosening your tie

               Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)         F (133211@1)   then we're always colliding this time of night
            Am (x02210@1)             C (x32010@1)                F (133211@1)   but our arcs, they could align   (we could align! we could align!)
             Am (x02210@1)    C (x32010@1)           F (133211@1)   and over gravity up comes this kicking child
