Artist: The Wonder Years Song: Hoodie Weather Part of the song: Whole Song Note: This is not how TWY plays it, but this version is easy to play and sounds great on acoustic. Original key is C#. To play without a capo just transpose everything up one. [Intro] C F C G Am G F C G [Verse 1]
                            C                      G                      Em
It smells like it should be snowing, and I've been frequenting a diner on Main Street

          Am             G          F
Where the waitresses are girls that graduated with me 

     G                     Am
Have problems with Oxy and can't recall what I had to drink

                           C                G                          Em
No one knows where they're going, they just know they want out of here badly

     Am         G            F                       G
Like cigarettes dropped on a highway. They'll smash, scatter and burn out

Am
Somewhere else without knowing.
[Pre-Chorus]
            F                          C                    G
I've got my Grandmother's veins in the back of my hands and just a hint of the South Philly accent. 

      F                        C                  G
I was born here, I'll probably die here. Let's go home.
[Chorus]
F               C                  G              Am       G
This town's got lies to tell. I'll wait around to hear you out but

F                 C                G
I can't keep from digging up these bones forever. 

   F                  C                 G                Am    G
At least for now I'll settle down. I'll try to find some solid ground. 

  F               C             G
I lost my footing trying to get home last winter.
[Verse 2]
                C             G                 Em       Am  G     F                         G
The kids in the graduating class have got their eyes set west, and California on their lips

      Am                                                  C
But I left some blood there that I'm never getting back.

G              Em                  Am             G  F
Rocky's in the Deep South. I don't think he's coming back now.

     G                  Am
It's sinister, but it's how life worked out.
[Pre-Chorus]
            F                          C                    G
I've got my Grandmother's veins in the back of my hands and just a hint of the South Philly accent. 

      F                        C                  G
I was born here, I'll probably die here. Let's go home.
[Chorus]
F               C                  G              Am       G
This town's got lies to tell. I'll wait around to hear you out but

F                 C                G

[Guitar Solo] F Am G F C G [Bridge]
           F  Am             G                    F
Growing up means watching my heroes turn human in front of me

        Am                G                               F
And the songs we wrote at eighteen seem short-sighted and naïve

            Am                          G 
So when the weather breaks I'll pull my hoodie up over my face

        F                    Am
I won't run away, run away.   

         G 
Cause as fucked as this place got it made me, me
[Guitar Solo] F C G Am G F C G [Chorus]
F               C                  G              Am       G

   F                  C                 G                Am    G
At least for now I'll settle down. I'll try to find some solid ground. 

  F               C             G
