[Abm] [B]
[D]
[Gm]
[C] Remember mama said, [F] Tickin, [A] Tickin, [Dm] Grow up straight and true blue, [Gm] Run along to bed,
[C]
Hear [Bb] it,
[G] [F] Clock on the ceiling, Fire on [Eb] the ceiling,
Wearing [Bb] a bling,
[Gm] [F]
So for the days we [D] live,
[Ebm]
We [Db] must have,
[Ab] Heartland cloudy,
And [Gb] snowfall leaves,
[Ebm] The tracks that catch [Db] a few,
[C] We're gonna fall,
But [F] it's city boy,
[C] Until we fall,
But it's city man,
[F]
[C] [G] [C] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] The word [Eb] friend's just around,
We've got [F] a long way to run,
We didn't track this,
Tryin' to [Bb] understand,
[Eb] Mama said,
So for the days [D] we live, Deep [Am] inside,
[C] My soul,
Fights [G] a war,
I can't [F] explain,
I [C] can't cross over,
[G] Anymore,
[Ab] Secret in the dark,
I come [Gb] away with [Db] something,
[Eb] To keep you in my [F] heart,
[Bb] [C] [G] Scout rainbow,
[D] Here I come,
I said,
Dream on, dream on,
Make [G] my love, [F] my pride,
[G] [D] Steam on, steam on,
Beauty [C] of,
The slows and times,
The boys are all together,
[Bb] The bar,
[Am] [F] Staring in their glasses,
Looks like [Eb] another lady,
[Cm] I'm psyched as y'all,
[Bb] [C] [F] Yesterday,
[G] Words can't explain,
[C] What I feel [G] inside,
[Eb] Like birds that need a,
[F] Quiet place [G] to hide,
[C] The
[D] stars look [A] towards the sun,
[E] And I,
Look towards the moon,
[G] Everyday,
[A] The swallows play,
In the [E] clouds of love,
[Ab] [Bbm]
From your old [Ab] iron fences,
There's more ways than [Gb]
one,
To regain your [Db] senses,
[Bb] One thing,
Like a camp,
And have [Eb] to scoop,
My roots up to Ohio,
I've seen beauty and [Ab] disaster,
Rocky on the roof,
[Eb] Little chicks,
Like to [Bbm] smile,
[Bb] Shaking their hips,
Trying to [Gm] hook [F] in,
[Bb] [F] Dancing,
Ranging,
[Bb] We smile,
[F] [Am] Darling,
[Bb]
[Am] Restoration's for [Gm] us,
[F] Baby,
[Bb]
[Eb] I gotta quit this,
[Ab] Habit,
It's like some drug,
For [Eb] you,
[G] You've been my,
Sweet, sweet addict,
Up [Ab] in your [A] little,
For there's more,
[D] Ways than one,
[Bm]
And the [E] ways,
Of the world,
Are [D] the
[A] same,
So [Dbm] when,
[Bb] Things get,
I walk,
While they talk about,
The truth,
The sprays,
On my back,
I'm a big, big,
No,
Push a kid,
No daddy,
With passion,
[Ab] I tell [Am] daddy,
[F]
[Am]
[Cm] Keep me waiting,
On [Eb] the front steps,
Of baby,
When I get there,
And [F] take a dive,
I'm slipping to my head,
Slip into [Bb] my soul,
Yeah,
[Fm]
And [Gb] every one of us,
That ever came to [Gbm] play,
Has [Db] to cross the bridge,
[Ab]
Off it,
[Db] And
[F] I like [Eb] life and love,
[Bb] See it through,
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Ab] To get [Eb] out of my way,
There [Ab]
[Eb] were two men,
Lying there with snakes,
[Ab] On the beach,
Pretending to [Ebm] fall,
[Bb] [Ab] [Gb]
[Db] [Ab] [Db]
[F] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Gb]
[B] And I don't believe,
[D] That I [C] wanna watch them,
[G]
[Bm] [C] A little bit lower,
Just get [Gm] a little bit lower,
[Dm] [Cm] [Bb] [F] [Eb]
Oh,
It's not at all [Gm] right,
[C] Pas la peine de [B] vivre enfermé,
C'est [Em] pas la peine,
Pas la [G] peine de rester [A] couché,
Non, c'est pas la [F] peine,
She did the dance,
[Bb] Made me feel like a bully,
A nanny [F] gun,
And [Db] the gun I would rather call,
[Ab]
[Bb] You wanna try to ride,
My own your pony,
[Eb] [Bb] Loosen up [A] my tie,
To [Cm] help me breathe,
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] She's standing [Ebm] dead,
[Gb] Sitting pretty,
In [Ab] the [Db] masquerade,
Snake,
Don't you wanna play this [Ab] game no more,
[Gb] Don't you wanna play [Bb] no more,
Oh,
[F]
[C] Fearless,
[Dm]
[Bb] [C]
[Fm] You,
[Gm] [Bb]
[F]
[C] Fearless,
[Dm]
