Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]
Here [C]comes the latchkey

[Verse 1]
[G]
kid,
He's got our world [C]on [G]his shoulders.
He has a secret [C]iden[G] tity
[C]On a fak[G]e ID that wil[C]l cla[G]im he
is ten years [D]older,
With tousled hair and eyes
that roll.
He's cynical, whatever [G]that means.
There's his sidekick the matchstick girl,
her behaviour erratic.
Confusing her victims with
mood shift twirls,
When backed in a corner she'll hit them
with something sar[D]castic.
With an attitutde and eyes that roll,
while hidden safe behind her [G]bangs.[Am]
What a wonderful [C]piece [G]of mind,
[C]Living [G]blind to the bro[D]ken.[Am]
(Something indiscernible) an
[C]old [G]excuse
[C]One [G]we'll use while we're [D]here,
Having the time, the time of our lives,
Relying on the [G]latchkey kid.
Make way for the latchkey kids,
They're our hope for the future.
They're going to erase all
the bad things we did
With their xbox skills and their heads
full of short- term [D]memory.
With eyes that roll and
teenage shoulders
Shrugging of the universe.
[G]Wha[D]t a[G][Am]
wonderful [C]piece [G]of mind,
[C]Living [G]blind to the [D]broken.[Am]
As tired as a [C]played [G]out song
We [C]all [G]sing along while we're [D]here,
Having the time, the time of our lives,
Relying on the latchkey kid.
[Eb]See the storm clouds f[F]orming there,
[Eb]You can feel the ten[F]sion in the air.
[Eb](Gui[F]tar [Eb]nois[D]es)[G]
[D](Other gui[G]tar [Am]noises)
What a wonderful [C]piece [G]of mind,
[C]Living [G]blind to the bro[D]ken.[Am]
We all have our [C]different [G]fears,
They [C]disap[G]pear when un
[D]spoken.[Am]
Someone should [C]do [G]something and that
[C]someone [G]will bring us redem[D]ption.[Am]
Very soons we will [C]raise our [G]glasses and
[C]kiss [G]eachothers' asses goo[D]dbye.
Until that time, it's been sublime
Relying on the latchkey [G]kids.
Make way for the latchkey kids,
They're our hope for the future.
Make way for the latchkey kids,
They're our hope for the future.

[Outro 1]
Make way for the latchkey kids,
[Eb]
