Chords

The G6 chord is played by sliding the Fmaj7 chord up two frets. [Intro] Dm Fmaj7 G6 Fmaj7 Dm Fmaj7 G6 Fmaj7 [Verse 1]
   Dm
In 1981

      Fmaj7
I was perfect for a month

        G6                                     Fmaj7
But the truth is it's been all down hill since then

              Dm
'Cause we did strange things to our bodies

          Fmaj7
And we forgot most of our studies

         G6                                    Am    Cm
And got all muddled up between our means an our ends

           Dm
Between forgiveness and permission

               Fmaj7
Oh we've got a crystal clear vision

            G6                                 Fmaj7
Of what we acutely choose to call the good old days

               Dm
But we've been scraping by our teeth

        Fmaj7
Through lives we didn't mean to lead

          G6                             Am
And I can barely tell you what I did yesterday

        G
Is it a Wednesday today?
[Chorus]
C/G            Dm               F
We're all just kids someone let loose

  Am       C/G
Into the world

             Dm           F
Waiting for someone to explain

    Am
The rules
[Verse 2]
             Dm
'Cause we're motherfuckers and we're pharisees

       F
And no longer all of a company

  G                                    F
Despite our attempts to keep up that pretence

       Dm
And we gave up on the cigarettes

          F
But we're still hooked on whimsical regrets

    G                                 Am             Cm
And wondering if it hangs like any of this makes any sense

    Dm
And Justin left Southampton

           F
And he got famous like I said

    G                                 F
And Adam, he got married and now he's happy down in Plumstead

    Dm
And Jay's a dad, and Tre's now back

    F
But Dave and Tommy, who knows?

     G                                 Am
They say he disappeared like Harps and Zo

                   G/B         G
But I saw him this one time in Mexico
[Chorus]
C/G             Dm              F
We're all just kids someone let loose

  Am       C/G
Into the world

             Dm           F
Waiting for someone to explain

     Am
The rules

           Am7/G
And that's all

          E                  F
Trying to find some kind of food

        D
In toy shops

           C/G
And got dispensed

              G               F          C/G   Am
Searching for subjects we are resurrectionists
[Bridge]
C/G  Dm
Resurrectionists

Am   F
Resurrectionists

      C/G  Dm
We're resurrectionists

Am   F
Resurrectionists
[Outro]
C/G           Dm
Searching for something that could

Am       F        C/G
Bring us back to life

              Dm
Searching for something that could

Am       F        C/G
Bring us back to life

      Dm       Am
We're all just kids

    F                C/G
Let loose into the world

   Dm        Am
Waiting for someone

  F              C/G
To explain the rules

  Dm   Am       F            C/G
Unsupervised, unhappy, and uncool

      Dm       Am     F
We're all just kids

           C/G
And that's all
