      Asus4
I was born in '67

The year of Sgt. Pepper

                      Cadd9/F
And Are You Experienced?

       Asus4
Into a suburb of heaven

Yeah, it should've been forever

                     Cadd9/F
It all seems to make so much sense

[Chorus]

Dsus
But after a while

                     CM7
You realize time flies

Dsus
And the best thing that you can do

Is take whatever comes to you

                 CM7
'Cause time flies

[Verse 2]

         Asus4
She said luck is all you make it

You just reach out and take it

                   Cadd9/F
Now let's dance a while

         Asus4
She said nothing ever happens

If you don't make it happen

                          Cadd9/F
And if you can't laugh then smile

[Chorus]

Dsus
But after a while

                     CM7
You realize time flies

Dsus
And the best thing that you can do

Is take whatever comes to you

                     CM7
'Cause time flies

Dsus
And laughing under summer showers

Is still the way I see you now [Solo] Power Chord with open 1st and 2nd strings Asus2 C Em G GM7 Asus2 F Em G GM7 Asus2 F Em

Asus4
How does time break down

        Cadd9/F
With no marker, things slow down.

Asus4
A conference of the strange

         Cadd9/F
And your family is deranged

         Asus4
I could tell you what I'm thinking

While we sit here drinking

                   Cadd9/F
But I'm not sure where to start

         Asus4
You see there's something wrong here

I'm sorry if I'm not clear,

                   Cadd9/F
Can you stop smoking your cigar?

[Chorus]

Dsus
But after a while

                     CM7
You realize time flies

Dsus
And the best thing that you can do

Is take whatever comes to you

                     CM7
'Cause time flies

Dsus
And the coat your wore to Alton Towers

It's still the way I see you now [Solo chords] Asus2 C Em G GM7 Asus2 F Em G GM7 (x3)
