DmTime (xx0231@1)it tells livin' in my hometown
Wedding bells they begin easy
Live it down, baby dont talk that much
Baby knows that baby don't tease me
FIn (133211@1)the park we could go walking
BbDown (x1333x@1)in the dark we could go sailing
DmOn (xx0231@1)the sea-ea


DmAlways (xx0231@1)here, always on time close call. 
Was it love or was it just easy
Money talks when people need shoes and socks
Steady boys I think that she needs me
FI (133211@1)was just sippin on something sweet
BbI (x1333x@1)don't need political process

Prechorus:
D5 (xx023x@1)                            Asus4I (x02230@1)got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door
Dm/F                             Gm*
I got this feeling that they're gonna come back for more
D5 (xx023x@1)                      Asus4See (x02230@1)I was thinking that I lost my mind
Dm/F                        Gm*
But it's been getting to me all this time
     A5And (x022xx@1)don't stop dragging me down

Chorus 1:

F (133211@1)        C (x32010@1)      Dm (xx0231@1)              BbSilently (x1333x@1)reflection turns my world to stone
F (133211@1)        C (x32010@1)       Dm (xx0231@1)            APatiently (x02220@1)correction leaves us all alone
     Bb (x1333x@1)           C (x32010@1)             DmAnd (xx0231@1)sometimes I'm a travelin' but tonight

(play notes on Bass A string (5th) over next line)



And I still hear the children playing


DmKick (xx0231@1)the can, kick the can skip and blackjack, 
Steal a car and ring around rosie
Rock and roll, candyland, boogieman, 
Run away and give me your sneakers

DmAcid (xx0231@1)rain when Abel looked up at Cain
We began weeping and a-wailin'
Hurry high from pestilence pills and pride
It's a shame we could have gone sailing
F (133211@1)                                 BbBut (x1333x@1)Heaven knows, Heaven knows everything...tranquilize

I still hear the children playing, dead beat dancers come to us and stay

          C (x32010@1)           FAnd (133211@1)we're looking for a page
C (x32010@1)                      DmIn (xx0231@1)that lifeless book of hope
       C (x32010@1)                 AmWhere (x02210@1)dream might help you cope
          Dm (xx0231@1)           GmWhere (355333@1)the bushes and the bombs
