Prom Theme Chris Collingwood and Adam Schelsinger Fountains of Wayne from "Utopia Parkway"
BG#m7 Here we are at last. The moment soon will pass C#m7Em We'll go our separate ways. We'll vanish in the haze BG#m7 We'll never be the same. We'll forget each other's names. C#m7Em We'll grow old and lose our hair. It's all downhill from there.
EEmBEmB But tonight we'll reach for the stars. We'll rent expensive cars F#Cm7F#C#m7 And dream our dreams of a perfect night F#E-5EB And we'll sing our prom theme
E-5EEmB
(The break is an instrumental with heavy strings that is basically a repeat of the verse and chorus but goes off on a discordant tangent at one point, then comes back to...)
BG#m7 Here we are at last. We're running out of gas. C#m7Em The air is getting thick. The girls are getting sick. BG#m7 We'll pass out on the beach, our keys just out of reach. C#m7Em And soon we'll say goodbye, then we'll work until we die.
EEmBEmB But tonight we feel like we're stars. We'll play our air guitars F#C#m7F#C#m7 'cause we're eighteen. It's a perfect night F#E-5EB to sing our prom theme. E-5EEmB

(I'm not sure if E-5 is the right name for that chord. It's an E with a regular fifth and a flatted fifth, first four strings only 0-2-2-3)
