I remember the stupid things, the mood rings, the bracelets and the beads
nickels and dimes, yours or mine, did you caption all your dreams, you
don't dream for me no, you don't dream for me no, but I still feel you
pulsin' like sonar, from the days and the waves and that girl is like
a sunburn, and I would like to say, girl is like a sunburn, and I would
like to say she's like a sunburn...
Note: The main verse lines have "|"s in them. The | in these lines indicates where
the previous riff ends and the current one begins.
