Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I'm[G][D][F#m][A]
[D][G][D][A]
[C]runnin' in the parkin' lot,
I'm [G]four years old
I [Bm]am lost, those were the days
[A]The [C]soft murmur of voices in
the [G]other room
Comforting [Bm]you as you [A]fall a[C]sleep
Starin' at the mother-daughter
clones [D]clones [G]go by
We're in a race against [Bm]time,
and time might be [A]winning

[Verse 2]
[A]
And it's not gonna [G]take
[D]all [A]day long
Watching the urban de[G]cay all [D]around us,
[A]oh boy
And I'm on [D]my [G]way, oh,
[D]somewhe[A]re
Feels like I'm going [G]left
and [D]right in the dark
[A]

[Verse 3]
How [G]long [Bm]must [D]we wait?
[A]How long must this stay?
[Bm]Oh wake [D]up, wa[G]ke up,[Bm]
oh [D]wake up, wake up
Oh wake up[A], wake up,
wake up, wake [C]up

[Verse 4]
I [C]am ashamed I think maybe [G]sometimes
I might've [Bm]used tricks to make
[A]you like me [C]more
When I found you I was [G]running wild
Let's get [Bm]out of here,
was in [A]trouble there

[Interlude 1]
[A][D][G][F#m][A]

[Verse 5]
I wanna [D]know
What are you thinking
[G]'Cause [F#m]I thin[D]k
I think it [A]too

[Verse 6]
[C]
Slidin' across the Indi[G]an wilderness
Like [Bm]the wind gliding [A]down soft [C]roads
Six AM now you're in [G]Hollywood
And you're [Bm]dancin', we [A]made [C]it
We are turning back the Earth [G]so fast
But it [Bm]feels a [A]lot slower

[Verse 7]
And it's not gonna [G]take
[D]all day[A] long
Watching the urban de[G]cay all [D]around us,
oh [A]boy
And I'm on my [G]way,
[D]oh,[A] somewhere
Feels like I'm going [G]left [D]an
d right in [A]the dark

[Verse 8]
How [G]long [Bm]will [D]it take
To [A]fix what they break?
[Bm]Oh wake [D]up, wa[G]ke up,
[Bm]oh wake [D]up, wake up
Oh wake up[A], wake up,
wake up, wake [Bm]up
[A]Your Achilles

[Verse 9]
[G]hee[D]l is you lik[A]e to fee[Bm]l
[A]Your [G]fingers o[D]n the wheel
[A]

[Verse 10]
Some [G]live in a [Bm]palace,
[D]some live in the sewers
The dir[A]ector, and the actor,
and the crew, and the viewers
[G]Boys get their toys [D]and girls got their dolls
And [A]nothing much else changes
through the final stages
How you're spendin' the [G]day
[Bm]is the s[D]ame as your [A]life
And you're watchin'
the time running away

[Verse 11]
Oh wait up[G], wait up,
oh [D]wait up, wait up
Oh wait up[A], wait up, wait up, wait up
Wake up[G], wake up,
oh [D]wake up, wake up
Oh wake up[A], wake up, wake up, wake up
