Intro
Verse 1
The kids get drunk, the kids get sad,
They start telling stories that they didn't even know they had.
And me, I always leave early so this is just what I hear.
The kids in the back are just up in arms,
that saying the same thing won't get 'em any new reaction.
Chorus
And we just need to stop now and change our rhythms to
Match up again.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
Post-Chorus 1: Cadd9
Verse 2
That guy from work, he is a friend of mine.
He likes the 5/8 time, he likes a 5th a night.
It makes him feel alright.
And I'd choose murder over heart attack.
I can't take the news, I can't face the fact that
this is all that I've really even ever had.
It's easier to just swim under the bridge
Than to stand right up and walk over it.
and I rolled over and looked straight up,
and saw there was no bridge and that water dried right up.
Chorus
And we just need to stop now and change our rhythms to
Match up again.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
Post-Chorus: , or , , , Riff (x5)

Interlude
Chorus
(One Strum on first Em only)
And we just need to stop now and change our rhythms to
Match up again.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
I keep getting all of your letters and they look good in print.
They look good in print.
