Verse:

G Dmaj7 D G
Shakedown nineteen seven nine
G Dmaj7 D
Cool kids never have the time
G G Em7
On a live wire right up off the street
A Dmaj7 D G
You and I should meet


Verse 2:

G Dmaj7 D G
Junebug skipping like a stone
G Dmaj7 D G
With headlights pointed at the dawn
G
We were sure we'd never see
Em7 A
An end to it all


Chorus:

D Dmaj7 Gmaj7(320002) D
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 D
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
Dmaj7 Gmaj7
To dust I guess
Em7
Forgotten and absorbed
A Dmaj7 D G G Dmaj7 D G
To the earth below


Verse 3:

G Dmaj7 D G
Double cross the vacant and the bored
G Dmaj7 D G
They're not sure just what we have in store
G Em7 A
Morphine the city slipping dues down to see


Chorus:

D Dmaj7 Gmaj7 D
And we don't even care as restless as we are
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 D
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
Dmaj7 Gmaj7
And poured cement
A
Lamented and assured


Bridge:

A Bm G
To the lights and town below
A Bm G
Faster than the speed of sound
A Bm G Em7 A Dmaj7 D G
Faster than we thought we'd go beneath the sound of hope


Verse 4:

G Dmaj7 D G
Justine never knew the rules
G Dmaj7 D
Hung down with the freaks and ghouls
G G Dmaj7 D G
No apologies ever need be made
G Em7 A
I know better than you fake it to see


Chorus:

D Dmaj7 Gmaj7 D
And we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 D
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
Dmaj7 Gmaj7
To dust I guess
Em7 A Dmaj7 D G
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below


Outro:

G Dmaj7 D G
The street heats the urgency of now
G D /
As you see there's no-one around
