intro: G D Am G D
 
        G               
there Comes a time when you get turned around, and
  D
Life itself just wears you out, 
 Am                                      G    D
but You keep getting ready for the big parade
         G
Ah you shine your shoes and you fake a smile
   D
Salute the players with that famous style
 Am                                  G    D
Cause, keepin' up has kept you in chains


                        C                  Bm
I was thinking that if you know a way then I'd 
                 D
like to go with you
                          C     Bm                 D
And we can put all our candles under that paper moon 
Am                                Em
They just don't know anything at all
 F                                C
They just don't know anything at all


interlude/bass solo: C Bm D


G
You'll fight traffic jams and big TVs, and
D
Hips just trapped in their own irony, 
Am                                        G    D
but You'll finally think about settling down

G
Oh you quit your job and you sell your car
D
You'll burn your clothes and pray to the stars, 
Am                                                   G    D
cause You swore to God that you'd never end up this way


                        C                  Bm
I was thinking that if you know a way then I'd 
                 D
like to go with you
                           C    Bm                D
And we can put all our candles under that paper moon
Am                                Em
They just don't know anything at all
F                                 C
They just don't know anything at all


C
At all
Em
At all
F
At all
C
At all
