-INTRO- D Riff D Riff -VERSE- D Riff Parents don't be too kind to your kids D Riff Or else how will they grow up to be D Riff Louche Parisian sinners and Nashville country singers D Riff Singing about the terrible things their parents did D Riff Lovers dont be sparing with the truth D Riff Break their hearts if that's what you must do D Riff Fill them with remorse tinged with hope of course D Riff E riff Let their baser instincts pull them through -CHORUS-

              E7             Gsus2         E riff
And though it seems a little strange to me

People never really change it seems

            D      Dsus2/G
All across America

A7 riff        D             Dsus2/G  A7 riff
Waitresses and boys who play guitar

     D                Dsus2/G
They fall in love and fall out

A7 riff The boys have something to sing about

        D                    Dsus2/G             A7 riff
And the girls go drown their sorrows in the bars

D                        Dsus2/G                A7 riff
While in front rooms all across the old country

D                 Dsus2/G            A7 riff
Sat spellbound in front of their TVs

D                    Dsus2/G
Younger brothers and sisters

D              Dsus2/G                            A7 riff  E riff
Wonder how the air tastes when you're really free

-CHORUS-

And though it seems a little strange to me

Well you can never really change it seems

          E7              Gsus2          E riff
We're all broken boys and girls at heart

     E7             Gsus2
Come together, fall apart

              Gsus2
Cause we were born without reason

      A7
We'll die without meaning

        Dm             Dm/C
And the world will not shrug all that

Much at our passing

You can try and try and try
