[Intro 1]
[Em][C][F][C][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]It's been 17 [Em]years
[C]I've [Em]been under the grou[G]nd
I don't want to [D]fly around,
[G]I d[D]on't want to fly [C]around
[F]When [C]you're a cicad[G]a,
you just meter and [D]meter[G]
[D]And I don't want to [C]fly around,
I don't want to [G]fly
Cause [Bm]I'm a reluctant ci[D]cada,
[G]I d[A]on't [Bm]want to come o[G]ut of the ground[A]
Cause [G]if I [D]fly, I'll [A]surely [D]die
And I [A]want to [Bm]stay around
[Em][A][Em][C][Em][C]
If I could [Em]stay under [G]the ground,
then I'd be [D]dreaming
[G]I w[D]ould be drea[C]ming that
[F]I'm[C] a cicada[G]
And I'd meet her and [D]mate [G]her
[D]And then we'd be [C]flying
[F]up [C]to the tre[G]es
But [Bm]I'm no reluctant cic[D]ada [G]I do[A]n'[Bm]t
want to [G]come out of the [A]ground
Cause [G]if I [D]fly, why [A]shall we [D]die,
and are [A]gone to [Bm]stay [Em]around?[A][Em][C][Em]
[C]You[Em][C][Em]
you
