[Intro]
Play Riff 1 x4
[Verse]
D D G D* First thing we'd climb a tree D D G D* And maybe then we'd talk D D G D* Or sit silently D D G D* And listen to our thoughts C With illusions of someday D Casting a golden light C No dress rehearsal D* This is our life
[Bridge]
Play Riff 1 x2
[Pre-Chorus]
D C And that's where the hornet stung me D And I had a feverish dream C With revenge and doubt D* Tonight we smoke them out
[Chorus]
A You are ahead by a century G You are ahead by a century A G You are ahead by a century
[Bridge]
Play Riff 1 x4
[Verse]
D D G D* Stare in the morning shroud D D G D* And then the day began D D G D* I tilted your cloud D D G D* You tilted my hand C Rain falls in real time D And rain fell through the night C No dress rehearsal D* This is our life
[Bridge]
Play Riff 1 x2
[Pre-Chorus]
D C That's when the hornet stung me D And I had a serious dream C With revenge and doubt D* Tonight we smoke them out
[Chorus]
A You are ahead by a century G You are ahead by a century A G You are ahead by a century
[Outro]
A You are ahead by a century G You are ahead by a century A You are ahead by a century G And disappointing you is
