Tom: Am

Am   C    F   Am  C
Oooh Oooh Ooh Ooh Oooh
F   Am  C    G
Ooh Ooh Oooh Ooooooooh...

[verse 1]
Am                C
Man I hate this town
F                                C
So I'm looking for the only way out
         F                            C                              G
And the life I wanted years ago was maybe not the life I should've found

Am                 C
I still live for sound
            F                                C
But lately all the people seem to talk too loud
         F                                  C                               G
And my feet are on the ground but all the words I say are coming out like clouds

F                      C
And they all know my name  (oh, oh)
F                      C                         G
And I don't want the same, so I guess I'd better go

[chorus]
F         G             Am               C
All those nights wasted on the speed of sound
F        G            Am             F
I still think that I just might come around
          G
For one more

[repeat intro]
Am   C    F   Am  C
Oooh Oooh Ooh Ooh Oooh
F   Am  C    G
Ooh Ooh Oooh Ooooooooh...

[verse 2]
Am                   C
It's always nice to blame
         F                                    C
But sometimes this life is certain like your name
          F                                    C                                          G
And the louder that the songs get played, the more those songs will start to sound the same

Am                    C
And I'm afraid I'll stay
            F                                      C
It's not because of all the things that you would say
             F                             C                             G
It's 'cause every time I fall in love is another time I watch you walk away

F                 C
And I'm not the same (oh, oh)
F                     C                           G
'cause now I can't change, so I guess I'd better go

[chorus]
F          G            Am              C
All those nights wasted on the speed of sound
F       G       Am              F
I still think I just might come around
          G
For one more

F         G             Am              C
All those nights wasted on the speed of sound
F       G       Am          F
I think I might just not be around
         G
For one more

[outro - repeat intro]
Am   C    F   Am  C
Oooh Oooh Ooh Ooh Oooh
F   Am  C    G
Ooh Ooh Oooh Ooooooooh...
