(ver. 1)
The Wonder Years
[Intro]

A B C Em F G
A B C Em F G


[Verse 1]

                        A        B
I bought flowers from a drifter.
C                    Em  F  G
Cut my hand on a thorn,
                A
Straight across the fate line.
       B    C
I'm no palm reader,
Em                     F               G       A   B
But I doubt that's the sign that I was looking for.
      C        Em         F
Rainy night in California.
           G             A
Told me he fought in the war.
           B            C      Em
And I'm so desperate to do the right thing.
        F              G              F
I'm not sure what that even is anymore.


[Pre-Chorus]

                       Em                G
He found a bus stop to weather the storm.


[Chorus]

C
I'm gonna stand up straight.
          Em                                     F
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid.
                    A
Mom, I want you to know
             G
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home.


[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

                     A        B
Faded light from the projector
C                        Em    F  G
Spitting summer out on a screen.
            A                 B        C         
The pool we swam in caved in years ago.
Em                   F             G          A
We filled it up with furniture and concrete.
B          C           Em
I saw right from wrong then.
F              G          A          
The lines were simple and clean.
            B            C               Em
Now all the people I was taught would be heroes
                F        G            F
Are acting like cowards, killers, and thieves.


[Pre-Chorus]

                            Em                        G
I'm losing track of who the good guys are supposed to be.


[Chorus]

C
I'm gonna stand up straight.
          Em                                     F
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid.
                    A
Dad, I want you to know
             G
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home.


[Instrumental]

F G Em A
C


[Bridge]

F                        G    
Coming undone at the seams.
Em                   A            
Stress fractures and muted dreams.
C   F
Oh, please.
              G
Undone at the seams.
Em                   A
Stress fractures and muted dreams.
C   F
Oh, please.
              G
Undone at the seams.
Em                   A
Stress fractures and muted dreams.
C
Oh...


[Chorus]

C
I'm gonna stand up straight.
          Em                                     F
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid.
                    A
Mom, I want you to know
             G
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home.
C
I'm gonna stand up straight.
          Em                                     F
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid.
                    A
Dad, I want you to know
             G                                A
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home.
