G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 There's a letter at my mother's house, came with a folded flag. G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 It said Right now, I'm coming home in a body bag. G5 D5 E5 C5 It's a pride and a pain that are one and the same. G5 D5 E5 C5 It's a burning cigarette, it's a horrible dream. G5 D5 E5 C5 There's a man in an office who's going through files G5 D5 C5 and a woman who watches TV. E5 D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 And she doesn't get the jokes told by late night talk show hosts, D5 but for some reason she laughs anyway. G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 There's this soap in my bathroom , and it's all covered in hairs. G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 There's this hope in my brain, and it's all covered in prayers. G5 D5 E5 C5 There's a girl in this town who doesn't know I exist. G5 D5 E5 C5 There's a wounded sense of pride and a pain in my fist. G5 D5 E5 C5 There's 12 empty bottles on this table tonight. G5 D5 E5 C5 There's 4 lungs on fire and 4 burning eyes. E5 D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 And something will explode, and someone will cry. D5 And someone will run out and never turn around. G5 D5 C5 There's a park in this city where I used to go, G5 D5 C5 but now it's covered with fences and cops and lightposts. G5 D5 C5 And I'd never go back if anything was the same, G5 D5 C5 D5 but it kills me to know that it's changed. G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 There's these kids who have dreams. There's these dreams that will grow. G5 C5 G5 D5 C5 Until they get so goddamn big that they explode. G5 C5 G5 D5 And what's left in the smoke and the falling debris G5 C5 G5 D5 is grownups like them and losers like me G5 C5 G5 D5 And what's left in the smoke and the falling debris G5 C5 G5 D5 is grownups like them and losers like me. E5 D5 C5 it's grownups like them and losers like me E5 D5 C5 D5 it's grownups like them and losers like me Yeah G5 D5 E5 C5 Tonight let's go walking down Clark Street G5 D5 E5 C5 and look at the new buildings that we've never seen. G5 D5 C5 We'll stop at the bar and pass out on the floor G5 D5 C5 And Tomorrow we'll forget everything D5 and we'll replay these days again.
