[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][Bm][Em][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
In a [D]pile of [Bm]trash
on the [Em]corner of [D]first and [G]park.
[D]Almost as [Bm]tall as [Em]the street light.
We [G]pulled over.
Two kids on [Bm]a black and
[Em]white dyno.

[Verse 2]
My mom an[D]d dad bought for my birthday.
[G]Jus[D]t las[Bm]t wee[Em]k.
[D]We're finding our fortune [C]here.
[D]Once upon a [Bm]time.

[Verse 3]
[Em]Brothers by [D]a pocket [C]knife.
[D]You traded me your [Bm]secrets.
[Em]I traded you [G]all of [C]mine.
Some[D]times when I'm looking [Bm]back now.

[Verse 4]
I [Em]wish I could [D]say [C]I'm [D]sorry.
I'm thinking of [Bm]me and you.
[Em]Back when [G]things felt right.
[D]This morning we [Bm]met at
[Em]the playground.

[Verse 5]
[D]We sat on the side of the tractor [G]tire.
And [D]talked of our plans [Bm]for
[Em]the next five [D]days.[Em]
[D]Over some [G]Cherokee [D]red.[G]
Some[D]time back in [Bm]late
Novem[Em]ber.[D]
[Em]We checked

[Verse 6]
[D]out the ice together.
[G]The rop[D]e tied aro[Bm]und my wai[Em]st.
You'd pull me [D]back if I would [C]fall.[D][Em][Bm][Em][D][C][D]

[G]nig[D]ht.

[Verse 7]
Sending [Em]signals through the [D]open
blinds with [C]flashlights.[D]
The neighbors [Bm]dog would bark
till [C]early morning [G]sunrise.
[D]Some roman can[Em]dles and a boo[D]k
of matches [C]that [D]night.
Explaining [Bm]burn marks in our
[C]clothes at dinner.

[Verse 8]
[G]Headlights [D]that ran across
[Em]the bedroom wall[D].
We thought that [C]it [D]might be a
[Bm]ufo from outer[C] space.
And [G]sometimes [D]we crawled
out [Em]on the roof.
And [D]tuned the ra[C]dio [D]into the [Bm]auto- rama [C]drive in movie show.
