C Bb F C Bb F
Twenty years ago a couple kids playing guitars singing in a band

Still here underground hashing it out still playing shows hanging with our friends

Wherever we are we're staying late we're gonna play until we can't stand

Might come back home with two black eyes and a 10,000 yard stare
[Verse 2]
G
Seventeen New Brunswick bars playing basements growing up

Dollar demos and matinees and malls and parking lots
G
One year later 1:19 back in Boston at a church
G
Climb in the back of a big black van on the road we're taking off
[Instumental]

Twenty years go by like pages from a calendar blowing in the wind

C Dm F C/E
Long days long nights time and time again
C G Bb F C
Might come back home with two black eyes and a 10,000 yard stare
