Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Staring at the sun

With no pants on

How round and rosy

She thinks she knows me

Fighting off a cold

Murdering a campfire song

Spitting in the wind

From out a fast train

Or on a causeway

Trying to catch a bus

Swear I gotta move

Suffering the radio crime

Whistle in the sweet pine trees

The imaginary airport breeze

 It flickers and flows

 Fans fires in the road

 And all we wanna do is go home

Someone's gonna break your heart

 One cold gray morning

She sings

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

Should we take this town

Do we want to

Tear the whole thing down

 Paint the rubble all tangerine

Shimmer in the gas main fires

We don't promise and we tell no lies

Learn to paddle when the waters rise

Melancholy comes

Like a robin at your window

So whistle in the sweet pine trees

The imaginary airport breeze

It flickers and flows

Fans fires in the road

And all we wanna do is go home

Someone's gonna break your heart

 One cold gray morning

The kids sing

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

And the traffic goes round and round

Swallowing the road and spitting out clouds

 And the spirit she hides

 On a damp path of moss and stone

 From a fear we are born with and never outgrow

 And what else you can keep

 Your American cash and smile

 And the suits sing

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

Oh whoa oh, oh whoa oh...

Someone's gonna break your heart [x3]
