Tom: A
A D E A D
[Verse 1]
A D E
To a world we'll not remember
A D
When we're old and tired
A D E A D
We'll be blowing on the embers of a little fire
A D E A D
We were the tallest person watching in Chesapeake
A D E A Dmaj7
You put me on your shoulders so I could see
[Chorus]
D A E
I was all covered in sound
A D
Ear plugs so it wasn't loud
D A E
Swallowed up by the crowd
A D
Didn't know what they were singing about
A D
I can't hardly wait
A D
For someone to replace
[Interlude]
A D E A D A D E A Dmaj7
[Verse 2]
A D E
It was hot in the arena
A D
Good men die like dogs
A D E A Dmaj7
My hero plays to no one, in a parking lot
A D E
Even though there's no one around
A D
He broke a leg and the house came down
A D E
A smattering of applause
A D
A sliver moon and a cover song
[Bridge]
A D
Oh sweet child of mine
A D
You're always sorry for everything, never apologize
A D
Oh sweet child of mine
A Dmaj7
Now you stand on the corner and hope you get recognized
[Chorus]
D A E
I was all covered in sound
A D
When you asked me to turn it down
D A E
Didn't even think it was loud
A D Dmaj7 D
Can you hear it now?
