Well, the old world may be dead Our parents can't understand
[G] But I still [A] have parents And I still love the old world
I had a New York girlfriend And she couldn't understand
How I [G] could still have [A] parents And still love the old world
So I told her I want to keep my place in the old world
And keep my place in the arcane
Cause I [G] still have parents And I still love the old world
