Riff 1 : D Dsus2 (x4)
D D
It's all a game of this or that, now versus then
Bm/F# G
better off against worse for wear
D D
And you're someone who knows someone who knows someone I once knew
Bm/F# G
And I just want to be a part of this
Bm/F# A D G
The road outside my house is paved with good intentions
Bm/F# A D G
Hired a construction crew, 'cause it's hell on the engine
Bm/F# A D G
You are the dreamer and we are the dream.
I could write it better than you ever felt it.
D G
So hum hallelujah,
Just off the key of reason
D
I thought I loved you
Bm/F# G
It was just how you looked in the light.
D G
A teenage vow in a parking lot
D
"Till tonight do us part"
Bm/F# G
I sing the blues and swallow them too
Riff 1 x1
D D
My words are my faith to hell with our good name.
Bm/F# G
A remix of your guts-your insides X-rayed
D D
And one day we'll get nostalgic for disaster
Bm/F# G
we're a bull, your ears are just a china shop
Bm/F# A D G
I love you in the same way, there's a chapel in a hospital
Bm/F# A D G
One foot in your bedroom and one foot out the door
Bm/F# A D G
Sometimes we take chances, sometimes we take pills.
I could write it better than you ever felt it.
D G
So hum hallelujah,
Just off the key of reason

I thought I loved you

It was just how you looked in the light.

A teenage vow in a parking lot
