Em                               D                C
There were days from last week   I couldn't quite complete
Em                   D       C        Em
Skipped ahead to the next afternoon  Sweat through the sheets
D        C         Em                            D             B7
Slept in my shoes  Hung around with the House of Balloons

C        G              D        Em
Keep the speed steady   Hold the wheel straight
C                 G        B7                C
We scratch and we scrape   We're scared then we're brave
C   G                         Em
The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars
C                 G            B7         Em       D           C
If you want to be saved all it takes is a wave

Em                              D                    C
There were kids at the car wash That said they could get it
Em                                 D          C
Gave them half but they never came back
Em                     D               C             Em               D        C
Drove by so slowly  It felt like we're floating  An inflatable raft
G                                D                     Em
  Our bodies are stoplights  Our minds are the streets
C                 G             B7          C
We scratch and we scrape  We're scared then we're brave
C               G             D           Em
The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars
    C              G      B7                  Em
And if you want to saved    all it takes is a wave

D    C    G    Em    D    C    G  (3x)

Em    D                  C          G
Sarah I still think that you are so beautiful
Em                       D        C           G
I'm sorry that you don't feel the same way as me
Em               D            C        G
We spent so much time in this town driving slowly
Em       D                G
We spent so much money on things that didn't stay
C       G            D             Em
So call for a taxi. Slide into the backseat
C               G              B7       C
It rolls like a glass bottomed boat
    G                            D            Em
The kids on the corner when they reach in the window
      C              G             B7        C
Their arms look like limbs from an oak

C        G              D        Em
Keep the speed steady   Hold the wheel straight
C                   G        B7        C
I swear I feel each little sway
B7                C        B7             C
Our minds are the windows  Our bodies are screens
B7             C                    G
We scratch     We scrape     And we dream

G               C                                                  Em
We dream of the limbs of the trees  We dream of the views from the boats
   D                        C            D
Of mountains all covered in oaks
       G                                      C
And we hope  As we hang from the limbs of the trees
C                            Em         D                        C          D
We cling to the rails of the boats  The mountains all covered in oaks
       G     Em     G            C                                     Em
And we dream of the limbs of the trees  We dream of the views from the boats
   D                Em      C            D
Of mountains all covered in oaks
Em     G                                      C
And we hope  As we hang from the limbs of the trees
C               D            Em         D                       C        Am
We cling to the rails on the boats  The trees as they turn into smoke
D                     Em      G
The trees they turn slowly to smoke

G   C   Em   D   C   D   (7x)
