Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Am][C]

[Verse 1]
Pushing through the market [C]square
[Am]So many mothers sighing
[D]News had just come over
[Dm]We had five [F]years left to cry in
[C]News guy wept and told us
[Am]Earth was really dying
[D]Cried so much, his face was wet
And [Dm]I kn[F]ew he wasn't lying

[Verse 2]
I heard [C]telephones, opera house,
favorite melody
I saw [Am]boys, toys, electric irons and TVs
My [D]brain hurt like a warehouse,
it had no room to spare
I had to [F]cram so many things
to store everything in there
And all the fat and skinny [Dm]people
[F]And all the tall- short peo[Dm]ple[F]
And all the nobody [C]people
[F]And all the somebody peo[G]ple
I never thought I'd need
so many people
[Dm][F]

[Verse 3]
[C]A girl my age went off her hea[Am]d
Hit some tiny children
[D]If the black hadn't- a pulled her off
Well, [Dm]I th[F]ink she would have killed them
[C]A soldier with a broken arm
Fixed [Am]his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
[D]A cop knelt and kissed the
feet of a priest
And the [F]queer threw up at the sight of that

[Verse 4]
[C]I think I saw you in an ice
cream parlor
[Am]Drinking milkshakes, cold and long
[D]Smiling and waving and looking so fine
[F]Don't think you knew
you were in this song
And it was [C]cold and it rained,
so I felt like an actor
And I [Am]thought of ma and I
wanted to get back there
Your [D]face, your race,
the way that you talk
[F]I kiss you, you're beautiful,
I want you to walk

[Verse 5]
We've got [C]five years, stuck on my eyes
[Am]Five years, what a surprise
We've got [D]five years,
my brain hurts a lot
We've got [F]five years,
that's all we've got

[Verse 6]
We've got [C]five years,
stuck on my eyes
We've got [Am]five years,
what a surprise
We've got [D]five years,
my brain hurts a lot
We've got [F]five years,
that's all we've got

[Verse 7]
We've got [C]five years,
stuck on my eyes
We've got [Am]five years, what a surprise
We've got [D]five years,
my brain hurts a lot
We've got [F]five years,
that's all we've got

[Verse 8]
We've got [C]five years,
stuck on my eyes
We've got [Am]five years,
what a surprise
We've got [D]five years,
my brain hurts a lot
We've got [F]five years,
that's all we've got

[Verse 9]
We've got [C]five years

[F]Five years, that's all we've got
