lyrics

Capo 2, 160 bpm
A D B7 E, E…
E
back when we were young
the closest we could get
to pretend-wrecking our lungs
was a candy cigarette
A
we’d puff on the paper blowing sugary smoke
pretending for a minute that we’d lost all hope
E
it was great
B7 E
for a minute to feel just like them
I rode around the block in a rented Cadillac
waving to my friends in hopes that they’d wave back
as I pulled into the driveway of my mortgaged home
I knew they all believed me, that they did not know
it was great for a minute to feel just like them
A D A7 D, A D B7 E
we went into the woods with a sleeping bag and tent
everything was good and nothing got too wet
the animals all smiled or it seemed to us
we left them all behind and rode home on our bus
it was great for a minute to feel just like them
A D A7 D, A D B7 E
just last Saturday I fell asleep under a tree
surrounded by old friends at the old cemetery
I dreamt that I was lying in the hands of the Lord
feeling safe and warm like I had never before
it was great for a minute to feel just like them
A D A7 D, A D B7 B7 E
