Seek out the patches on the punks, maybe a band I know.

I bet you in five minutes time, we find that we know all the
Em             D               C     C/B
same people, places, and roads

like dinner time's become a crime to spin the thorns and wheels.
C                         D
It makes me wonder why we rebels make a holiday of
Em    D           C
every single meal

   And when we find amazing places,

So, I collect these crumpled, beer-stained flyers, seven-inches, photographs,

all your old letters that remind me to look down and back.
C                       D
It’s then I realize our romance has its roots in one

So when I'm feeling like it’s time for bed, the game is done,
Em            D                   C               D
it’s all been raided, jailed, and busted, and the weasels won,
C                      D
I find a batch of kids thinking things, I never thought when
Em  D   C     C/B
I   was young
             Am                          C
This songs a weapon, defense against the dying years
     D           G
that anytime you feel,
B7            C         Cm
every story's been spun
