CAPO ON 3
Intro:
Em C x2
Em
Barely noticed puberty as hair grew subtly onto my virgin flesh
C
Permanently burning away at my baby fat chest
Em
"Ceschi the stretch marks from when you were
C
sixteen are still there to tell you that you're going nowhere"
Em
Fast at least, no masterpiece
C
will last a week, while giants and dragons jump onto the canvas sheet
Em
How you gonna prove you're not another sucker
C
with a dream living under your Grandpa's roof in a room with your brother
Em
All of us want to be someone better
C
Until the moment when the ominous comes and just stomps on our festival
Em
It's a fucking rainy day, plain and gray
C
In Connecticut waiting for a saving grace to take us away
G
and it's just
C
One quick moment for the parade to arrive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
G
One quick moment
C
for the parade to arrive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
Em
Helium filled monstrosities wave in the wind above a cheering crowd
C
That's tearing down our city simply with the blaring sound
Em
Of "Oohs" and "Ahhs"
C
And huge applause as people scurry to catch a glimpse of balloons in fog
Em
Everybody in LA was looking for a lucky break
C
But all I really wanted was to get out of that fucking place
Em
I never wanted to be that big blimp in a parade
C
That just sits in deep haze waiting for the day that it deflates
G C
One quick moment till the parade comes alive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
G
One quick moment
C
till the parade comes alive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
Em
Then we'll chuckle in sync like after Snarf jokes on Thundercats episodes
C
We'll reminisce about bullshit we walked through on this wretched road
Em
It was a mess, I know, tough to pass the test of growth
C
But we never let those foes question our endless sense of hope
Em
This is a song for all my friends trying to live off music
C
A song for my people who are told every day that they'll never do it
Em
And even though we'll all wind up in space under graves
C
At least we kept our legs strong moving along the whole way
G C
Wait one moment for the parade to arrive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
G
Wait one moment
C
for the parade to arrive
Em
In just one moment
Am
all the floats will choke the sky
G C
Choke the sky, choke the sky
Em
all the floats will choke the sky
Am
Choke the sky, choke the sky
G
all the floats will choke the sky
C
Choke the sky, choke the sky
Em
all the floats will choke the sky
Am
Choke the sky, choke the sky
Em
all the floats will choke the sky
