We look like a million dollars
Every time they look at us, we'll blow their mind

G                                      C      D           G
Let's get wrecked on Rolling Rock and stroll down to the sea
I'll come to my senses there and then you'll come to me

Em                 C                D
Let's forget about all the ringing telephones
Let's forget about the boring brick suburban homes
Em                   D
Let's go out, we'll take this town
       C                D          G
Let's wrestle this city to the ground

#Chorus

G                    C       D              G
Let's go make some history before we fall apart
True love might escape us, girl but at least we got some heart

Em                  C                   D
Let's forget about all our friends and family
Let's forget about all our lover's enemies
Em                     D
Let's go out when the sun goes down
         C              D         G
Let's wrestle this city to the ground

#Chorus

Every time they look at us, we'll blow their mind
Every time they look at us, we'll blow their mind

G
It's dusk as all the shadows fall

                   C
The sun is laid to rest

                  G
At night the city comes to life

       D                 C
As the light dies in the west

G
Here we stand as some local band

                        C
Sets circles 'round the clock

                           G
Smoke so thick you need a lighthouse

    D                       C
So loud I can't hear myself talk



G
Someone whispered in my ear

                      C
"It's not like it was before"

                  G
I don't know what happened here

  D                 C 
I guess we just got bored

G
The good old days

                                           D
Well I suppose, I'm glad they're behind us now

    G                     C
The only thing worse than growing up

   G           D        G
Is never quite learning how

G                            
Late at night we toss and we turn

               D
Lay awake 'til dawn

G                        C                  G        D   G
We close our eyes as the sun comes up we're gone

A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C

        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am

         Dm

    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A#

till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability

[Outro]

They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Your asking what I found

think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm

that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long

       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no

We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

     E
Stop actin? like I thought I should
    A
And went on back to bein? me

  
I never meant to hurt no one

I just had to have my way
           E
If there's such a thing as too much fun
A
This must be the price you pay

 You never see it comin? till it?s gone
