D       
I knew it first thing I met you
                            F#m
There's something special in us
                  G
Our lives will be different
                  D      A
We will stay young forever
                   D
We'll know when we get there
                     F#m
And we looked for entrance doors
                G
But somehow we never
              D    A
And there was no

             D                              
And when the streets wake up at nights, we'll go there
A             G
Singing "Hey, Ho"
    D                           A
Hey ho, to the plans that slip away before we have them
          G
Catching soup with forks without lamplight
         D                
And everyone else seemed to end up places
A                        G
While we just sang "Hey, ho"
    D                       A
Hey ho, to the sailors that never passes by 
            G
To take us along to Brazilian sea ports

D F#m G

                        D
But there is something about him
                           F#m
Like he has never seen the world
                      G
Something so pure and decent
              D        A
I have to destroy it

            D
Or tap it on bottles
                 F#m
And drink it all night
              G 
And put a ring on it
           D      A
To keep it forever

         D
And in a sudden flash of light I'll stand there
A             G
Singing "Hey, ho"
    D                       A
Hey ho, to the hope I carry with me in my hands
           G                      D
Fragile as newly-born birds or as egg shell 

G                   Bm     A
I have something, I know I do
       G                    A
I just need someone else to see it too
     G                   
To pinpoint it and let me know
       Bm     A
What to do

G                   Bm     A
You, my friend, you are no help
        G                        A
You have just as little clue as I ever had
  G
We ask each other for directions
            Bm                 A
It's as entertaining as it is sad

                     D
No, I didn't ask much of him
                       F#m
Only that he'd be all I need
                       G
That he'd fill the void in me
                  D     A
Make me stay young forever

           D
And now we roam the streets like tourists
         F#m
There is panic in our eyes
           G
We pick up every paving stone
          D                 A
Look underneath them for anything


     G               Bm     A
Your head is nowhere safe tonight
      G               A
I have no idea what to say tonight
           G
We'll take off our boots and run out
           Bm                   A 
Curse and scream at the moon, tonight

      D                                
In a dream I'm on my death bed
      A                   G
Being asked what it's all about
          D
And in my dream I know it:
A                            G
Roaming the streets with your best friends

Singing "Hey, ho"

But when I woke up
              D
I forgot it
