D              G
I brought a guitar

            D          F#m    G
I brought a handful of credit cards

           D         F#m           G            Em
I filled a van and a trailer up to the top with shit

          D        A     G
That I'll probably never use

D       G
I took 95

           D                 F#m  G
And then I transferred to the I-85

        D   F#m               G      Em
Took it to 441 South to North Ave to Ruth

       D             A      G
Then I drove through my backyard
[Chorus]
D G   Bm                      G
Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

D             G              Bm             G
I could never understand why people can't begin again
[Verse]
D                G
It wouldn't stop raining (we didn't have our key)

D            F#m       G
'Till we met Helen and JJ (at about 1 AM)

               D     F#m             G        Em
They said from LA to London there is no other place

        D      A         G
I would rather live than here

D           G
We had to unpack things

        D          F#m          G
Just to get to the mattress and box spring

           D           F#m           G         Em
Flopped it down in the center of our shiny new home

       D             F#m            G      G#dim
A blue house with no cable and with no telephone

       Em                      A
Just a bottle of champagne and we popped the cork
[Chorus]
D G   Bm                      G
Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

D             G              Bm              Em
I could never understand how people hate the Minutemen

    D      F#m    G     A#dim  Bm         F#m     G         Em
How people can't appreciate it takes time to make something great

D       F#m      G           A#dim      Bm      F#m      G           Em
Yeah, I know I'm repeating myself here, yeah, I know I'm repeating myself again

Shake the shakes away

Bm
Shake the shakes away

D
Shake the shakes away

Bm
Shake the shakes away

G                           D                      F#                        Bm  A
If you're going uphill at a very rapid speed, soon there's nowhere to go but down

   G                                 A
So take the time to rise back up and up and up and up and up
[Chorus]
D     N.C.
Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

D             G              Bm             Em
I could never understand why people can't begin again

    D             G              Bm         G
Why people can't appreciate it's okay to do something great

D                G                 D         A         G
Yeah, I know I'm repeating myself again and again and again
