Ahead By A Century

Chords
pin

Verse 1
D
First we?d climb a tree
D
and maybe then we?d talk
D
or sit silently
D
and listen to our thoughts
C
with illusions of someday
D
casting a golden light
C
no dress rehearsal, 
D
this is our life



Pre-Chorus
D                                C
that?s where the hornet stung me
		         D
and I had a feverish dream
                C
with revenge and doubt
                       D
tonight, we smoke them out

Chorus
A                         G                            A 
You are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century, you are ahead 
            G
by a century


Verse 2
D
Stare in the morning shroud
D
and then the day began
D
I tilted your cloud
D
you tilted my hand
C
rain falls in real time 
D
and rain fell through the night
C                  D
no dress rehearsal, this is our life


Pre-Chorus
D                              C
That?s when the hornet stung me
                    D
and I had a serious dream
                 C
with revenge and doubt
                        D
tonight, we smoked them out

Outro
A                          G                           A
You are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century, you are ahead 
            G                            A                    G
by a century,                             you are ahead by a century, 
                         A                           G    D D D
you are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century                  
G                                         D
and disappointing you?s getting me down

    The rhythm of this is d uuududud. Wish there were more variation in the D chords to form the signature riff. Maybe that can be finger picked?
