Intro:  E

E
I want to go back to the way it used to be 
                                    A
before the bad guys came out of the trees 

and pulled the sky down on top of the dark 
                                 E
"brown stick yourself back of my heart" 

only want to be that hero saving you from the damned 
                      B
car bomb my mom is in Afganistan 

i don't want to be damned 

i wanna be tanned 

i wanna be a real man 

E
i wanna take you out on the town 
                                      A
and give you some good times to throw around 

in your head when you're old got no friends 
                          E
make the good times never end 

so help your hand grenades keep your pins in your pockets 
                             B

so you can go anywhere you like any old time 

E
"the way the rings surround the jearsy shore" 
                                  A
"could fill you up with food ever more" 

i lift you up without lettin you down 
                                  E

and all the birds they keep lifiing you up and then into the air 
             B
and into the thin space between the here and now

                                 A

E
trying to put the bats back in the dark 
                                   A
"black of my heart i'm made out of jam" 
                                     B
