[Intro] | Am | C | D | F | | Am | C | D | E | [Verse 1]
  Am        C            D     F
A kiss goodbye on the train tonight

        Am   C               D        E
Made me reminisce, we were young and wild

       Am       C            D         F
It’s a parting gift to your wife and child

   Am        C         D         E
A loaf of bread and a sideways smile
[Pre-Chorus]
F                  C
    It’s a cloudy day

          D          E          G        E
    The sky’s choked up but it doesn’t rain

F                          C                  G
    All the trees and the billboards look afraid
[Chorus]
                  C
We’re going to a better place

               G
Happiness you can’t escape

               Am         G       F
Sitting at the kids table   on a holiday

                 C                   G
Acting out your favorite scene on a big flat screen

              Am           G       F
While they’re all watching   for eternity

       Fm
It's a masterpiece
[Instrumental] | Am | C | D | F | | Am | C | D | E | [Verse 2]
       Am         C               D      F
As you walk the block through the aftershock

        Am            C             D              E
You can get to that spot that was there, now it’s not

          Am           C               D      F
We would meet in the court where the people shop

          Am         C      D   E
I was a queen for a day in Camelot
[PreChorus]
F                       C
    Guess I’m over the hill

            D    E        G      E
    Like a daffodil on a window sill

F                     C                G
    Withering in the sunshine of free will, still
[Chorus]
                  C
We’re going to a better place

               G
Happiness you have to taste

               Am         G       F
Sitting at the kids table   on a holiday

                 C                G
Acting out your final scene on a big flat screen

              Am           G       F
While they’re all watching   for eternity

                 C
Blasting off to outer space

                 G
Small step in a big rat race

               Am         G         F
Sitting at the kids table   with an empty plate

          Fm
That I appreciate
[Outro] | Am | C | D | F | | Am | C | D | E | | Am | C | D | F | | Am | C | D | F | | Am |
